Split face

Written for ChatGPT. Results and reference-photo support may differ across models.

The complete prompt

Use the two uploaded reference images as STRICT reference sources.

IMAGE 1 = PERSON 1 → LEFT 50%
IMAGE 2 = PERSON 2 → RIGHT 50%

1. CORE RESULT — TRUE 50/50 SPLIT

Create a highly realistic 50/50 vertical split-face portrait using the two reference images.

LEFT HALF OF FACE = PERSON 1.
RIGHT HALF OF FACE = PERSON 2.

Keep each person's recognizable identity strictly on their own side.

Do NOT average the two identities together.

Do NOT create a new generic face.

Do NOT mix Person 1's features into Person 2's half or Person 2's features into Person 1's half.

Do NOT create two separate people or two heads.

The final image must show one head and one portrait with two clearly recognizable facial identities divided vertically down the center.

Only the central boundary should have a subtle, realistic transition so it does not look like a digital cut-and-paste.

The division must remain visually clear enough that the viewer can identify:

However, the boundary must not look like a hard digital cut.

Use a very subtle natural transition at the center.

No diagonal division.

No curved division.

across both halves.

The two reference identities should look as though they were photographed under the same photographic conditions.

Use realistic skin texture, natural shadows, subtle background blur/bokeh, mild film grain, and authentic camera detail.
