Exact Prompt Recipe Scroll to read more
**Use the uploaded portrait as the ONLY and STRICT identity reference for the person. Transform the uploaded person into the exact visual style, composition, clothing, lighting, and poster design described below, while keeping the person’s face and identity completely unchanged.** ### STRICT IDENTITY PRESERVATION — HIGHEST PRIORITY Use the uploaded person's actual face exactly as provided. Preserve their **facial identity, facial structure, facial proportions, eyes, eyebrows, nose, lips, jawline, cheekbones, ears, hairline, skin tone, age, natural asymmetries, and recognizable likeness**. **Do NOT replace, redesign, beautify, idealize, feminize/masculinize, or reinterpret the face. Do NOT make the person look like a different model, celebrity, actress, or illustration character.** The uploaded person's face must remain immediately recognizable as the same person. The illustration style may stylize the rendering of the face, but the **underlying facial geometry and identity must remain faithful to the uploaded reference.** ### COMPOSITION Create a premium editorial **vintage illustrated fashion poster** in a tall vertical format, approximately **4:5 aspect ratio**. Place the subject in a **three-quarter side-profile portrait**, facing toward the left side of the frame. Frame the image from approximately the upper chest/shoulders upward, with the head occupying the central area. The subject should have a calm, confident, sophisticated expression and natural posture. ### ILLUSTRATION STYLE Transform the photograph into a highly detailed **hand-drawn editorial ink-and-gouache illustration** with a vintage screen-print/poster aesthetic. Use: - bold black and deep crimson-red linework - warm cream/beige paper background - limited vintage color palette - visible hand-drawn hatching - fine crosshatching across the skin - rough ink contours - subtle sketch strokes - layered red and black tonal shading - slightly imperfect screen-print texture - authentic printed-poster imperfections - sophisticated fashion-magazine illustration quality The face must retain the uploaded person's exact recognizable features despite the artistic rendering. ### HAIR Keep the person's **actual hairstyle, hairline, length, texture, and overall appearance from the uploaded reference**. Render the hair with dense black ink strokes and hand-drawn texture while maintaining the original hairstyle. ### CLOTHING Dress the subject in an elegant **traditional South Asian-inspired red patterned garment**, such as a richly printed embroidered shirt, kurta, or fashion blouse. Use intricate cream and pale-gold floral, paisley, ornamental and botanical patterns over deep crimson-red fabric. Include delicate jewelry appropriate to the reference composition, such as: - small elegant earrings - a subtle necklace or chain Keep the styling sophisticated, editorial, and culturally inspired rather than costume-like. ### COLOR PALETTE Use a restrained vintage palette dominated by: **deep crimson red + burgundy + black + warm ivory + muted cream** The background should be a flat warm **aged-paper cream** tone. Use red ink selectively for shadows, facial contouring, clothing, typography, and graphic accents. ### POSTER DESIGN Create a retro independent-fashion-magazine poster layout. At the very top, add three tiny editorial navigation words spaced across the page: **RANDOM** — left **TYPO** — center **STORIES** — right Behind/above the subject's head, place a huge hand-drawn red editorial title reading: **KALYANI** The title should look like expressive vintage brush lettering / rough hand-painted typography, with irregular edges and artistic ink imperfections. **Important:** The title is purely a graphic design element and must not influence or alter the person's identity. ### BOTTOM DETAILS At the bottom-left corner, add a small editorial date-style graphic: **01** **25** Use compact red typography. Along the lower portion of the poster, add a tiny line of elegant editorial-style text resembling a magazine caption or poetic quote. Keep it subtle, small, and partially integrated into the design. Add a small minimalist red geometric monogram/logo mark in the bottom-right corner. ### PAPER & PRINT TEXTURE The entire poster should feel like a physical vintage printed artwork: - slightly textured cream paper - subtle paper grain - screen-print imperfections - imperfect ink registration - faint distressed edges - hand-printed texture - fine halftone details - subtle analog noise - authentic editorial poster finish Do not make it look like a clean modern digital vector graphic. ### LIGHTING & RENDERING Use the uploaded photograph's facial structure and recognizable features as the foundation, then reinterpret the lighting through illustrated shading. Create strong directional shading using crimson-red and black ink, with warm cream highlights on the face and clothing. Maintain realistic facial proportions underneath the illustration treatment. ### FINAL QUALITY Highly detailed, sophisticated, premium fashion-editorial artwork, vintage South Asian poster aesthetic, hand-drawn ink illustration, expressive brushwork, intricate textile patterns, beautiful typography, authentic paper texture, cinematic composition, professional art-direction, visually striking, polished, high resolution. **MOST IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION:** The final result must look like **the exact person from the uploaded photo transformed into this vintage illustrated poster**, not a newly generated person. Preserve the person's face and identity above all stylistic instructions.
