Canvas: Wide horizontal 16:9 reference board, dark charcoal studio background, thin black grid dividers, small all-caps white labels, premium fashion lookbook mixed with film production concept art. Use photorealistic full-body photography style, sharp detail, muted contrast, subtle vignette, no watermark. Character details: A handsome adult East Asian man in his early 30s, athletic slim build, clean-shaven face, short textured black hair, serious cinematic expression. Outfit is a long {coat_color} tailored overcoat, black turtleneck knit, dark gray vest, black slim trousers, polished black leather boots, and a stainless steel wristwatch with a black-and-red chronograph dial. Overall mood is elegant, brooding, urban, and detective-like. Layout and exact element count: Build one complete reference board containing exactly 46 labeled image panels total. Top-left main section: Title it “TURNAROUND - FULL BODY REFERENCE”. Include exactly 5 full-body turnaround views of the same character against a neutral studio backdrop, labeled: FRONT, 3/4 ANGLE, SIDE PROFILE, BACK, FULL BODY POSE. Keep outfit consistent in all five views. Upper-middle expression section: Title it “EXPRESSION REFERENCE”. Include exactly 7 facial expression panels labeled: NEUTRAL, HALF-SMILE, FOCUSED STARE, THOUGHTFUL, DETERMINED, CANDID SMILE, INVESTIGATIVE GAZE. The first six are head-and-shoulders portraits in a 3-by-2 grid, and the seventh is a larger dramatic close-up beneath them. Upper-right hair section: Title it “HAIR REFERENCE”. Include exactly 4 close-up hair panels labeled: STUDIO CONTROLLED, NATURAL WIND, RAIN DAMPENED, OUTDOOR TOUSLED. Focus on the same short textured black hairstyle under different conditions. Far-right lighting section: Title it “LIGHTING REFERENCE”. Include exactly 6 portrait lighting panels labeled: HARSH MIDDAY, OVERCAST DAYLIGHT, GOLDEN HOUR, BLUE HOUR, INDOOR TUNGSTEN, MUSEUM LIGHTING. Make each panel clearly change color temperature and shadow quality. Middle detail strip: Include exactly 8 close-up product/detail panels labeled: EYE DETAIL, EYEBROW SLIT, WATCH DETAIL, OVERCOAT FABRIC, TURTLENECK KNIT, BOOT DETAIL, HAND DETAIL, LEFT WRIST WATCH. These should feel like luxury fashion catalog macro shots with tactile textures and realistic skin detail. Middle-lower portrait and silhouette section: Include exactly 2 panels labeled FACIAL PROFILE STUDY and SILHOUETTE REFERENCE. The profile study is a side portrait of the face and hair; the silhouette is a black standing figure against a gray background. Right-middle movement section: Title it “MOVEMENT & POSTURE STUDY”. Include exactly 3 full-body pose panels labeled: WALKING, RELAXED STAND, NATURAL GESTURES. Keep consistent wardrobe and body proportions. Bottom environmental pose studies: Title it “ENVIRONMENTAL POSE STUDIES”. Include exactly 11 cinematic environment panels labeled: WALKING - FINANCIAL DISTRICT, MOUNTAIN OVERLOOK, CITY SKYLINE LEAN, CHECKING TIME, ADJUSTING OVERCOAT, TRAIN PLATFORM, HAND IN POCKET, ARCHITECTURAL SIT, WALKING IN RAIN, plus two additional unlabeled-but-visibly-distinct urban continuation panels if needed to complete the wide bottom row composition. Settings should include city streets, rooftop skyline, train platform, modern architecture, rainy night street, and misty mountain overlook. Text content: Use the section titles and panel labels exactly in English, small white uppercase sans-serif type. Keep labels aligned along panel bottoms or section headers like a professional production reference sheet. Visual style: Photorealistic editorial fashion photography, cinematic noir palette, dark gray backgrounds, burgundy and black wardrobe emphasis, realistic fabric and leather texture, consistent face identity across all panels, clean modular grid, thin black gutters, professional character design reference board. Constraints: Do not add extra people, props, logos, or decorative graphics. Keep the same character and same wardrobe throughout every panel. Ensure all repeated elements are clearly countable and labeled as specified. ``` ## Variables Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt. | Variable | Label | Example | |---|---|---| | `{character_name}` | character name | an East Asian male urban detective character | | `{coat_color}` | coat color | deep burgundy | ## About Generates a photorealistic fashion-style character reference board with turnaround poses, expressions, hair, lighting, details, and environmental studies.
