Use the exact face and likeness from the reference/input photo only, keeping 100% of the real physical features. Preserve the same skull and bone structure, eye shape and distance, nose shape, mouth and lips, jawline, cheekbones, chin, ears, neck, skin tone and natural skin texture. Do not beautify, stylize or change proportions of the face; only change environment and effects around the person. The result must look like the same real person from the photo. Do not change height, body type or age. Keep the same gender presentation and ethnicity as in the reference image, with the same hairstyle, length, volume and direction of the hair. Do not cut, recolor or restyle the hair, only adapt it to the water and light effects without altering its core shape.
MAIN PROMPT:
Create a surreal, cinematic side‑profile portrait of the person from the uploaded photo, emerging from deep darkness. The face and body must match the reference image 100%: same skull and bone structure, nose, lips, jawline, cheekbones, chin, ears, neck, skin tone and natural skin texture. Keep the same gender presentation, ethnicity and hairstyle (same length, volume, direction and color); do not cut, recolor or restyle the hair, only integrate it seamlessly into the water effect.
Pose the subject in clean profile view, looking to the right, with the head transforming into an explosive crown of glowing turquoise water and mist. The hair area should morph seamlessly into liquid: water jets, arcs and splashes frozen in motion, with delicate droplets and swirling streams rising upward like a sculpted fountain, while still following the original hair silhouette from the photo. The water crown should feel dynamic and three‑dimensional, with each droplet and stream catching light.
Wrap the upper body partially in luminous turquoise smoke and vapor, flowing around shoulders and chest like ethereal waves. The skin is dark and richly textured, wet and glossy with tiny droplets and particles catching the light throughout. Use dramatic, controlled studio lighting: cyan and turquoise highlights along the profile, cheekbone, jawline and water crown, contrasted sharply against a deep black background. Add volumetric mist and particle effects throughout the composition for depth and mystical atmosphere.
Keep the eyes, lips and facial features hyper‑realistic: sharp, reflective eyes (as visible in profile), glossy lips with subtle dimension, detailed pores and fine skin texture. Use shallow depth of field so the face, neck and nearby water elements are razor sharp while the background dissolves softly out of focus. Style: ultra‑detailed, hyper‑realistic dark fantasy artwork in 8K resolution, high contrast, cinematic studio lighting, moody and mystical surrealism suitable for poster‑quality printing and exhibition.
TECHNICAL COMPOSITION REQUIREMENTS:
Profile angle: Clean 90° side view, head slightly tilted forward or neutral, showing full ear, jawline and neck profile clearly.
Lighting setup: Key light from upper left/front creating bright turquoise highlights on water crown, face and rim lighting on profile. Fill light minimal, allowing shadows to define form. Back light separating the water from the black background. Studio‑quality controlled lighting with zero spill or overflow.
Water effects: Frozen droplets with realistic refraction and reflection. Splashes with natural physics and gravity‑defying upward motion. Swirling streams with smooth gradients and volumetric presence. Turquoise color with cyan accents, glowing as if bioluminescent or lit from within.
Smoke/vapor: Luminous turquoise mist flowing organically around shoulders and chest. Semi‑transparent with soft edges. Volumetric lighting showing particle density variations. Seamless blend between solid form and ethereal vapor.
Skin texture: Moist appearance with fine droplets covering surface. Ultra‑detailed pores visible under magnification. Natural skin tone with cool highlights from turquoise light. Glossy finish suggesting wetness without appearing artificial.
Background: Deep black void with no visible detail, allowing sharp subject separation. Subtle volumetric fog in the far background to suggest dimension without distraction.
Depth of field: Shallow focus (approximately 85mm equivalent) with sharp plane on face and front water elements. Smooth bokeh in background. No harsh transitions between focus zones.
NEGATIVE PROMPT (COMPREHENSIVE BLOCK):
