Glowing details and a dark moody palette give the cyberpunk look immediately.

What you will get

A detailed digital illustration of a hacker in a dark hoodie with glowing circuit patterns and a visor, floating holographic screens around them in a dim, neon-lit room with rain on the window.

Why it works

Cyberpunk is defined by glowing details in the dark, so the prompt gives the hacker a hoodie with circuit patterns in your colour, a visor and floating screens in a dim room. Neon light and rain on the window add mood. A tall 2:3 frame suits a character poster or a phone wallpaper.

Common mistake

The scene is too bright.

Fix: Keep a dark moody palette with glowing details, as the tip suggests.

Also watch for

The screens show readable fake code. Ask for abstract glowing graphics, no readable text.
The character is generic. Add one signature item, such as a cracked visor or a cat-ear headset.

Try a variation: make a character sheet

Ask for the same hacker in front, side and back views on a dark grid, with the outfit details kept consistent.

Still not right? Add this and run it again

Keep the character. Add a small drone hovering beside the shoulder and reflect the neon on the wet window.
