SEPIA GRAPHITE GLAMOUR DRAWING

Prompt

SEPIA GRAPHITE GLAMOUR DRAWING” PROMPT
(IDENTITY LOCK — ABSOLUTE • DRAWING LOCK — HARD • STYLE — GRAPHITE ONLY)
Use the uploaded image as the subject.
IDENTITY LOCK — ABSOLUTE (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
Preserve exact facial features, proportions, bone structure, and natural asymmetry
Maintain original identity with zero reinterpretation
Do NOT beautify, idealize, or alter facial anatomy
Do NOT change eye shape, spacing, nose, lips, or jawline
Maintain exact gaze direction and expression
The subject must remain instantly recognizable
POSE & COMPOSITION — LOCKED
Maintain exact pose, head angle, and orientation
Preserve original framing and camera perspective
Do NOT rotate, mirror, tilt, or recompose
Keep tight portrait framing (head, neck, partial shoulders)
DRAWING LOCK — CRITICAL (THIS OVERRIDES ALL RENDERING)
The final image must read clearly as a hand-drawn graphite illustration, NOT a photo:
• Visible pencil stroke behavior must exist across the entire image
• Use controlled cross-hatching, soft directional strokes, and layered graphite buildup
• Edges must be drawn, not digitally airbrushed
• Slight natural line variation and pressure sensitivity must be present
• Subtle paper grain/tooth must be visible beneath shading
STRICTLY AVOID:
• Photoreal skin rendering
• Airbrushed gradients with no stroke texture
• Digital paint blending that removes stroke evidence
If it looks like a photograph → it is incorrect
STYLE TRANSFORMATION — SEPIA GRAPHITE
Render in monochrome sepia graphite tones only:
• Warm sepia, beige, ivory, soft brown range
• No full color, no saturation
• Tonal depth achieved through layered graphite shading, not blur
Shading must be:
• Built gradually using visible pencil layering
• Smooth at a distance, but clearly textured up close
FACIAL RENDERING — DRAWN PRECISION
Skin:
• Constructed with fine graphite shading and light cross-hatching
• Soft transitions, but never fully smoothed out
• Maintain structural planes of the face through tonal buildup
Eyes:
• Highly defined with precise linework + subtle shading
• Iris and lashes drawn with fine strokes (not painted)
• Must remain the sharpest focal point
Lips:
• Defined through tone and soft edge lines
• Slight highlight indicated through preserved paper tone
HAIR RENDERING — GRAPHITE FLOW (CRITICAL)
Hair must be drawn as flowing, voluminous graphite strands:
• Built using long, confident pencil strokes
• Directional line flow following curl structure
• Layered strokes to create depth and volume
• Highlights achieved by leaving paper exposed
Avoid:
• Painted or airbrushed hair
• Over-smoothed gradients
• Plastic or synthetic appearance
Hair must feel hand-rendered, dimensional, and alive with stroke direction
LIGHTING — DRAWN, NOT PHOTOGRAPHED
• Light and shadow must be constructed through graphite shading, not digital lighting
• No artificial glow effects
• Highlights come from paper preservation, not brightness filters
BACKGROUND — PAPER-BASED MINIMAL
• Clean, subtle textured drawing paper background
• Soft sepia tone or natural paper color
• No photographic depth-of-field or blur
MATERIAL & FINISH
• Must resemble a museum-quality graphite drawing on toned paper
• Fine art illustration — not digital painting, not photo manipulation
• Slight organic imperfections are allowed (and required) to sell realism as a drawing
NEGATIVE PROMPT (STRICT)
No photorealism
No airbrushed skin
No digital painting look
No smooth gradient-only shading
No plastic or overly polished finish
No color beyond sepia range
No blur-based shading
No loss of visible pencil strokes
OUTPUT GOAL
A high-end sepia graphite drawing where:
• Identity is perfectly preserved
• The image is unmistakably hand-drawn
• Pencil strokes, shading structure, and paper texture are clearly visible
• The result feels like a master-level traditional graphite portrait, not a processed photo
