That's Not Smoke, That's a Galaxy
Everyone else's barbecue drips grease; this guy is burning straight into the Milky Way.
✍️ The hard part isn't rendering a man on fire — it's where exactly the flame climbs up and turns into a nebula; this prompt demands it blend seamlessly, with no visible seam anywhere in between.
