Tang Dynasty Portrait Generator — high-waisted robes, mineral pigment
Tang dynasty portraiture has a distinct proportion and palette: high-waisted robes that lengthen the body, elaborate updos, rounded facial forms, and mineral pigments — cinnabar, azurite, malachite — rather than modern cosmetics.

Common questions
Is this historically accurate?
It is a stylised interpretation built from Tang painting conventions. Treat it as character art, not a reference for costume research.
Can I choose a specific rank or role?
Yes — court lady, musician, noblewoman. The role changes the accessories and the posture more than the robe colour does.
Why does the face look flat?
Tang painting uses flat mineral colour rather than modelled shading. If you want more volume, ask for "subtle modelling under the mineral pigment".
