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. The hair should appear dark and slightly messy, maintaining the exact style visible in reference.
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 in graphic novel illustrative style.
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—looking upwards and slightly to the left with determined expression. Keep lips their natural color and shape. The face must be 100% recognizable as the same individual despite the graphic novel artistic rendering.
