What You'll Need
Optional materials for this quest.
Prompt Engineering Notebook
RequiredYou will write down hundreds of prompts as you experiment — what worked, what bombed, what surprised you. A dedicated notebook keeps your best prompts organized so you can remix and improve them.
Color Pencils or Markers for Sketching Concepts
RequiredBefore you type a prompt, sketch what you're imagining. Hand-drawing your concept first actually makes your prompts more specific and your results better. Any 24+ color set works.
Wacom Intuos Small Drawing Tablet
If you want to combine your own hand-drawn sketches with AI tools, a drawing tablet lets you sketch digitally and feed your drawings into image-to-image AI tools for stunning results.
