The King and the Leopard

Writing

Use the uploaded user's photo as the **ONLY source of the main subject's identity and facial appearance**. Preserve the user's exact, recognizable identity with maximum fidelity, including facial structure, facial proportions, face shape, forehead, hairline, eyebrows, natural eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, mouth structure, cheeks, cheekbones, jawline, chin, skin tone, natural skin texture, facial hair if present, and every distinctive facial characteristic. The final subject must unmistakably look like the person in the uploaded user photo. **Do not copy the reference subject's identity, facial features, or appearance. Do not beautify, redesign, reshape, slim, age, de-age, masculinize, feminize, or reinterpret the user's face.** Preserve the user's gender and identity exactly as provided.
**REFERENCE IMAGE RECREATION — SCENE, POSE & COMPOSITION:** Recreate the reference image as a highly realistic, professionally photographed luxury editorial portrait of the user seated confidently in a large black leather armchair, with a majestic adult leopard positioned behind them as a powerful visual companion. The composition is vertical, approximately 4:5 aspect ratio, with the seated subject occupying the center and foreground, and the leopard extending across the background. Reproduce the reference's overall arrangement, proportions, framing, and visual balance as closely as possible.
**SUBJECT'S BODY POSITION & POSTURE:** The user is seated deep inside a wide, dark black leather armchair, facing directly toward the camera in a relaxed yet authoritative, powerful posture. The upper body is upright with the shoulders broad and naturally relaxed. The torso faces forward. Both arms rest outward on the chair's padded armrests. The user's left hand (on the viewer's right) rests naturally on the right armrest, with the palm facing downward and fingers relaxed and slightly separated. The user's right hand (on the viewer's left) rests on the opposite armrest in a similarly relaxed position. Ensure both hands are anatomically accurate, fully visible, naturally proportioned, and correctly connected to the wrists and arms. The legs are spread comfortably in a wide seated stance, with both thighs and knees extending toward the lower foreground. Reproduce the relaxed, dominant seated pose without exaggeration or unnatural anatomy.
**HEAD POSITION, EXPRESSION & GAZE:** Recreate the reference subject's head position: facing toward the camera with a mostly frontal orientation, naturally aligned with the shoulders and torso. Preserve the reference's calm, serious, composed, confident, and slightly stern facial expression. The mouth remains closed in a neutral, relaxed position, with no smile. The eyes look directly toward the camera/viewer, with a steady, focused gaze. Reconstruct the reference's eye openness, eyebrow positioning, neutral mouth placement, and facial tension using the user's identity. **The user's source-photo expression, gaze direction, and head pose must not override the reference.** The user's face must retain its own identity while adopting the reference's expression and visual behavior. Do not make the subject smile or introduce an unrelated emotion.
**CLOTHING & STYLING:** Dress the user in a sophisticated, all-black formal outfit matching the reference. The subject wears a black textured tailored blazer with a subtle woven or embossed pattern, structured lapels, and a refined, luxurious appearance. Underneath, add a fitted black turtleneck sweater with a high collar covering the neck. The trousers are matching black textured formal trousers, creating a coordinated monochromatic black suit ensemble. Add a small, elegant metallic gold animal-shaped lapel pin on the upper left side of the blazer (on the user's left chest, viewer's right), matching the placement and subtle decorative appearance in the reference. Keep the clothing fitted naturally to the user's body proportions, with realistic fabric folds, seams, texture, and shadows. Do not introduce different colors, casual clothing, ties, or additional accessories.
**LEOPARD — BACKGROUND SUBJECT:** Place one large, realistic adult leopard behind the seated user, extending horizontally across the background from the left side toward the right side of the frame. The leopard's body is positioned behind the chair and subject, with its golden-tan coat, dense black rosette patterns, muscular build, and natural fur texture clearly visible. The leopard's head rises behind the user's upper right shoulder (viewer’s right), positioned near the upper-right area of the composition. Its face is directed toward the camera with both eyes visible, an alert yet calm expression, and a strong, majestic presence. Reproduce the leopard's detailed ears, forehead, nose, whiskers, facial markings, and realistic golden-brown eyes. The leopard must appear physically integrated into the scene, with natural body proportions and convincing depth. Its body remains behind the subject and must not obscure the user's face, hands, or clothing. Do not add any additional animals or people.
**ENVIRONMENT & BACKGROUND:** Recreate the clean, minimal studio environment with a plain white or near-white background. The background should be seamless, bright, uncluttered, and free of visible architecture, furniture, text, logos, or decorative objects. The black armchair provides a strong contrast against the light background, while the leopard's patterned coat creates visual depth behind the subject. Preserve the reference's luxury editorial studio aesthetic and balanced contrast between the dark clothing, golden leopard, and white background.
**CAMERA & COMPOSITION:** Use a front-facing camera positioned approximately at seated chest or eye level, with a slightly low-feeling perspective that emphasizes the subject's confident presence without distortion. Use a medium-full to full seated portrait framing, capturing the subject from the top of the hair through the legs and the visible chair, with the lower portion of the body extending toward the bottom edge. The subject is centered horizontally, occupying most of the foreground. The leopard's head remains clearly visible in the upper-right background, while its body stretches behind the subject toward the left edge. Maintain the reference's camera distance, frontal viewpoint, centered composition, and vertical framing. Use a natural portrait lens perspective, approximately 50–70mm equivalent, avoiding exaggerated wide-angle distortion. Ensure the hands, arms, head, and body remain proportionate.
**LIGHTING & PHOTOGRAPHIC STYLE:** Use bright, soft, diffused studio lighting from the front and slightly above, creating even illumination across the user's face, black clothing, hands, and leopard's fur. Preserve realistic skin texture, subtle facial shadows, natural highlights, and detailed fabric patterns. Use gentle shadows beneath the arms, around the chair, within the clothing folds, and behind the leopard to establish depth. The white background should remain clean and luminous without harsh overexposure. Render the leopard's fur with fine individual strands, detailed rosette markings, realistic whiskers, and natural highlights. Create a premium, photorealistic luxury fashion editorial aesthetic with high dynamic range, accurate color reproduction, crisp details, realistic materials, and professional studio photography quality.
**REALISM & ANATOMY:** Ensure accurate human anatomy, realistic hands with five fingers on each hand, correctly formed fingers and nails, natural wrist connections, symmetrical facial structure based on the user's identity, and anatomically correct legs and posture. Ensure the leopard's anatomy, fur, facial proportions, and positioning are realistic. Maintain consistent lighting direction, shadows, scale, and perspective between the user, chair, and leopard. Avoid artificial-looking skin, excessive smoothing, distorted hands, duplicated fingers, extra limbs, malformed facial features, floating objects, or unrealistic overlaps.
**FINAL PRIORITY RULE:** The uploaded user photo determines WHO the subject is. The reference image determines HOW the subject looks and behaves in the scene, including expression, emotion, gaze, head position, body pose, clothing, composition, camera perspective, leopard placement, lighting, and overall visual style. Preserve the user's exact identity while recreating the reference image as accurately as possible. Produce a single polished, photorealistic image with no text, watermark, logo, border, or additional subjects.
