Full prompt
Based on the clear portrait reference I uploaded, generate a set of "Dark Neo-Chinese High-End Photography," totaling 9 images, all in 3:4 vertical composition. Each must be a separate image; no grids, collages, or poster layouts. ## Character Consistency Strictly preserve the real identity features of the reference person: face shape, facial proportions, eye shape, nose, lips, jawline, hairline, skin tone, age, temperament, and overall recognizability. Do not swap faces, change them into strangers, or use generic influencer/anime/doll faces. The reference image is only for identity; do not retain the cafe, casual clothes, paper cups, or daily settings from the original photo. ## Overall Style Dark Neo-Chinese, black-and-gold oriental aesthetics, gold-leaf bamboo shadow screens, dark red carpets, nighttime cinematic feel, high-end fashion magazine quality. The visuals should be cold, restrained, dangerous, and noble with an oriental suspense vibe. Backgrounds should feature gold-leaf textured screens, bamboo leaf projections, black-gold frames, and transitions of deep brown and dark red. Avoid massive flat black or plain gold; there must be mottled textures, light spots, and layers. ## Hair, Makeup, and Clothing Hair: Neo-Chinese high or low bun with loose strands, decorated with red hairpins, dark red floral ornaments, or fine hairpieces. Makeup: Glamorous fashion makeup, upturned black eyeliner, clear eyelashes, subtle smoky eyeshadow, clean base, nose bridge highlights, deep reddish-brown or wine-red lips. Clothing: Black lace modified qipao with a stand-up collar, frog buttons, cinched waist, high slits, clear lace patterns, and jacquard textures. Neck, arms, and leg lines can be shown but must be high-end and restrained, not vulgar. Accessories: Black-gold folding fans, slender black-gold smoking pipes, golden geometric earrings, golden bracelets, red hairpins; few but exquisite. ## Lighting and Texture High-budget studio quality, combining warm gold hard light, side light, backlighting, rim lighting, and local fill light. Facial features must be clear, eyes must be bright, and black clothing should not be flat black—lace, patterns, folds, and edge highlights must be visible. Preserve real skin texture, body structure, fabric, and lighting. Avoid painterly, illustrative, 3D modeled, or overly smoothed AI looks. Character proportions must be natural, hand structures correct, and limbs non-deformed. [Individual shot descriptions omitted for brevity in translation, focusing on consistency and cinematic qualities across nine distinct poses involving folding fans, smoking pipes, and bamboo screens].
