Prompt2161 chars · 334 words
Use the uploaded photo as the only identity reference. Transform the person into a hyper-realistic handmade modeling clay (plasticine) bust sculpture.

SUBJECT

- Keep the person clearly recognizable: same facial proportions, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, hairstyle.
- Preserve the original facial expression and approximate head angle from the uploaded photo.
- No beautification, no age change.

REAL CLAY MATERIAL (MUST LOOK PHYSICAL)
- Must look like real modeling clay, not CGI, not porcelain, not wax.
- Show subtle hand-made realism: faint fingerprints, tiny tool marks, soft smudges, gentle dents, slight seam lines where clay pieces meet.
- Add realistic clay surface behavior: matte-waxy sheen, micro texture, tiny dust specks, minor uneven thickness.

SCULPTING DETAILS
- Hair: sculpted clay strands/clumps with believable direction and volume, slightly imperfect alignment.
- Skin: layered clay look with fine micro texture (not airbrushed smooth).
- Eyes: clay-crafted eyes (not glossy realistic eyeballs). If separate pieces are used, show tiny join lines.
- Lips and nose: soft clay transitions, realistic handmade edges.

COLOR & FINISH
- Natural clay color palette for skin and lips; hair as clay (not real hair).
- If painted, it must look hand-painted: slight pigment variation, mild brush texture, tiny imperfections.
- No extra accessories unless clearly present in the uploaded photo.

PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE (MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A REAL PRODUCT PHOTO)
- Studio product photo of a physical sculpture: realistic 85mm lens look, natural depth of field.
- Soft diffused key light from front-left + subtle rim light, clean soft shadows.
- Neutral seamless background: solid off-white or light gray.
- Add a realistic contact shadow and a subtle tabletop surface texture.

COMPOSITION & QUALITY
- Centered composition, chest-up framing, clean margins.
- Ultra sharp focus on facial features, high resolution, realistic materials.

NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS
