## Prompt

```text
UNIVERSAL “MODULAR WOOD BLOCK RELIEF SYSTEM” PROMPT (IDENTITY LOCK – STRICT)
Use the uploaded image as the subject and the only identity reference.
IDENTITY LOCK – STRICT (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
Preserve exact facial structure, proportions, and feature placement. Do not alter eyes, nose, mouth, or silhouette. Maintain expression and recognizability.
POSE & COMPOSITION – LOCKED
Keep original angle, framing, and perspective. No rotation, mirroring, or camera changes.
STYLE TRANSFORMATION – WOOD BLOCK RELIEF (HARD)
Transform the entire image into a densely packed carved wood construction:
Rebuild all forms (face, hair, clothing, background) using interlocking wooden blocks, rods, and carved segments.
Use a mix of rectangular beams, rounded dowels, sliced cross-sections, and stacked planks.
Maintain tight packing density with minimal gaps (no empty flat areas).
MATERIAL SYSTEM – WOOD (CRITICAL)
All elements must be realistic wood with visible grain, rings, and natural variation.
Grain direction must follow the form of each piece (no random textures).
Include cut ends, knots, and subtle imperfections.
Finish: matte to semi-matte natural wood (no plastic, no gloss).
DEPTH & STRUCTURE – HARD RELIEF
Build multi-layer depth stacking (foreground, mid, background blocks).
Pieces must overlap, interlock, and step in/out like a carved wall.
Preserve facial topology using depth transitions, not smooth shading.
FACE & HAIR INTEGRATION – UNIFIED SYSTEM (CRITICAL)
Face and hair must be constructed from the same wood block system.
Hair flows as elongated carved segments following natural direction.
Facial features are defined by precision placement of smaller blocks and contours.
No separation between materials – everything is wood.
LIGHTING – FORM REVEAL
Use directional lighting to emphasize depth, edges, and grain texture.
Shadows must reinforce layer separation and structure clarity.
NEGATIVE PROMPT (STRICT)
No smooth skin, no paint overlay, no flat shading. No metal, plastic, or non-wood materials. No loose abstract shapes or soft blending. No distortion of facial structure or perspective. No gaps or empty areas – maintain dense construction.
