Use the exact face and likeness from the reference/input photo only, keeping 100% of all real physical features unchanged. Preserve precisely the same skull and bone structure, eye shape and eye distance, nose shape and tip, mouth shape and lips, jawline definition, cheekbone height and shape, chin structure, ear shape and size, eyebrow shape and arch, hairline position and hairline shape, skin tone and skin texture. Do not alter, beautify, slim, age, de‑age, feminize, masculinize or change any facial proportions whatsoever. Every facial feature must remain exactly as shown in the reference image.
Preserve the exact hairstyle from the reference photo: same hair length measured precisely, same hair volume and density, same hair direction and flow, same hair color without any recolor or tone shift. Do not cut, layer, restyle, trim or modify the hairline. Only allow natural adaptation to moisture and water effects without structural change.
Keep the same gender presentation and ethnicity as clearly shown in the reference image. Do not change body type, height, shoulder width, or body proportions. The final result must be unmistakably the same real person from the photograph, rendered with dramatic water droplet effects.
Do not alter eye color, eye size, eye shape, eye spacing, or eye angle. Preserve the exact natural expression and gaze direction from the reference. Keep lips their natural color and shape. The face must be 100% recognizable as the same individual despite the water droplets and dramatic lighting.
MAIN PROMPT:
Create an extreme close-up dramatic artistic portrait featuring the exact person from the uploaded reference photo, with artistic and dramatic focus capturing the face covered in water droplets. The subject should be rendered with 100% facial and body fidelity, maintaining all natural features, expressions and characteristics from the reference image while being artistically stylized with water effects, dramatic lighting, and chiaroscuro contrast.
Compose the portrait as an extreme close-up, vertical composition focusing primarily on the face. Position the subject in partial profile view or three-quarter view, creating intimate drama and emotional intensity. The composition should fill the frame with facial features, allowing the viewer to see hyper-realistic detail on every visible surface.
Render the subject's skin with hyper-realistic texture showing all visible detail:
Clearly visible pores throughout the face
Fine lines and subtle skin texture around the eyes
Natural skin variations and realistic surface texture
Authentic skin appearance despite the water coverage
All freckles, moles, beauty marks preserved and visible
Natural skin tone from reference maintained

Cover the entire face with water droplets of various sizes and characteristics:
Small spherical water droplets appearing as perfect spheres
Medium-sized droplets scattered across face
Larger droplets in focal areas (nose tip, lips, cheek)
Water droplets clinging to eyelashes, creating clustering effect
Water droplets hanging from nose tip, appearing ready to fall
Fine thread of water connecting certain droplets
Water flowing in thin rivulets down the face
Water creating wet streaks on skin surface

Each droplet showing realistic light refraction and reflection
Render the visible eye (left eye in reference) with careful attention to detail:
Partially open eye showing authentic eye opening
Iris color matching reference exactly (light blue-green tone)
Clear, bright iris with visible detail and depth
Long, dark eyelashes wet and matted from water
Eyelashes clustering together from moisture
Eyelashes showing individual strand detail despite water
Eyebrow above eye, populated and well-defined
Eyebrow showing natural texture and color
Water droplets clinging to eyelashes and eyebrow
Authentic eye expression matching reference
Render the nose with partial profile view:
Nose shape exactly matching reference profile
Water droplets clinging to nose surface
Prominent water droplet hanging from nose tip
Fine thread of water connecting from main droplet
Droplet appearing to be captured at moment before falling
Nostril visible with water detail
Natural nose texture and proportions preserved
Render the mouth with dramatic detail:
Lips painted with intense, vibrant red lipstick (matching reference color)
Lips slightly parted, revealing edge of upper teeth
Mouth positioning matching reference expression
Water flowing over lips creating glossy, wet effect
Water droplets on lip surface creating dimensional quality
Water dripping from lower lip in thin streams
Lips appearing glossy and reflective from water coverage
Red lipstick color appearing saturated and vibrant despite water
Authentic lip shape and fullness preserved
Apply chiaroscuro lighting with dramatic contrast:
Strong light source from right side (viewer's right)
Light highlighting water droplets and creating sparkles
Deep, dark shadows on left side of face
Shadows merging with deep black background
High contrast between illuminated areas and shadows
Dramatic shadowing emphasizing facial structure
Light creating volumetric quality on water droplets
Shadows showing color variation (cool undertones in shadows)
Use warm golden and cool color contrast:
Warm golden tones predominating in skin tone
Warm light highlighting right side of face
Cool tones in shadow areas
Intense saturated red lips creating vibrant color accent
Light blue-green eye creating cool color contrast
Water droplets appearing crystalline and translucent
Highlights on droplets appearing pale white or pale blue
Apply shallow depth of field with extreme close-up perspective:
Tack-sharp focus on face and prominent features
Eyes in perfect sharp focus
Lips in sharp focus
Eyelashes sharp and detailed
Some areas slightly softer due to extreme proximity and shallow focus
Out-of-focus water droplets in lower left (floating/blurred droplets)
Blurred droplets suggesting atmospheric depth and movement
The overall aesthetic should be intense, fresh, sensual, and artistic—evoking emotional intensity and physical presence. The constant dripping and water coverage suggests captured motion and energy. The finish should be masterpiece-level photorealistic art suitable for fine art exhibition or high-end editorial use.
Overall style: dramatic artistic close-up portrait, chiaroscuro lighting, hyper-realistic with artistic water effects, ultra-detailed, photorealistic, high contrast, cinematic quality, 8K resolution, masterpiece-level execution.
