"title": "Crimson Moon Gothic Raven Portrait, Male Reference",

"purpose": "Generate a gothic illustrated portrait using a separately uploaded photograph of an adult man to determine the subject's appearance.",

"reference_images": {

"male_identity_reference": "USER_PROVIDED_MALE_PHOTO",

"scene_style_reference": "ATTACHED_GOTHIC_RAVEN_IMAGE",

"priority": "Preserve the man's recognizable facial identity from the male identity reference. Use the scene image for composition, wardrobe, setting, palette, and illustration style, not for the man's face.",

"identity_features_to_preserve": ["face shape", "age appearance", "skin tone", "hair color and hairstyle", "hairline", "eyes", "eyebrows", "nose", "lips", "jawline", "facial hair if present", "distinctive visible facial features"],

"identity_rules": ["Do not copy the pictured man's facial features unless he is the separately supplied identity reference.", "Do not invent facial hair, alter apparent age, or change ethnicity.", "Adapt the reference man's real hairstyle naturally to the scene."]

},

"main_prompt": "Create a richly textured vertical gothic fantasy illustration featuring the adult man from USER_PROVIDED_MALE_PHOTO. Preserve his recognizable face, hairstyle, age appearance, and proportions. Show him in a three-quarter standing pose, torso angled slightly left, face turned toward the viewer, with a composed, enigmatic expression and both hands tucked into the pockets of a long black Victorian-inspired overcoat. A large glossy black raven perches on his shoulder. A black cat with luminous amber eyes sits in the lower left foreground. Behind him, a winding cobblestone path leads through a haunted gothic village toward tall, intricate cathedral-like towers with warm amber windows. A huge textured blood-red full moon glows in the upper-right sky. Leafless twisted trees frame the scene and several small ravens fly in silhouette. Render in an ornate dark-fantasy storybook style with dense etched pen-and-ink linework, crosshatching, subtle painterly shading, weathered parchment texture, dramatic crimson and charcoal contrast, and restrained amber accents. Keep the man dominant in the composition and his face clear and faithful to the supplied identity photo.",

"negative_prompt": "different man's face, copying scene reference face instead of identity reference, altered facial structure, incorrect age, exaggerated caricature, plastic skin, cartoon proportions, photorealistic background mixed with illustration, extra limbs, malformed hands, duplicate ravens, duplicate cats, blurry face, unreadable architecture, text, logos, watermarks",

"usage_instructions": ["Upload a clear photo of the adult man whose appearance should be used.", "Provide this JSON as the generation prompt and the attached gothic scene as an optional style/composition reference.", "Assign the man's photo higher identity priority than the gothic scene reference.", "Generate in a vertical 4:5 format; adjust only if your generator requires a supported ratio."]
