Create a photorealistic character reference sheet of the person in the attached reference image.

Preserve their exact facial identity, proportions and features with zero deviation. Do not redesign, restyle, beautify, age up or age down. Every panel must be unmistakably the same person as the reference photo.

IDENTITY AND REALISM
Preserve exact facial structure, bone structure, hairline, hair length, hair colour, hair texture, eye colour, freckle pattern and skin tone from the attached image
Natural skin texture with visible pores and real imperfections, no over-smoothing
Realistic hair behaviour and light response, individual strands visible at the edges
No stylization, no CGI look, no illustration, no beauty retouching

POSE AND STYLING
Neutral A-pose, arms slightly away from the body, weight even, fully dressed at all times
Calm neutral expression, mouth closed, eyes to camera on the front views
Wardrobe locked and identical across every panel

LIGHT AND GRADE LOCK
Soft hazy daylight from screen-right, low warm angle, gentle bounce filling the shadow side of the face, warm faded natural colour, fine visible film grain, low contrast, lifted soft blacks, gentle blown highlights. No studio strobe, no cinematic grade, no LUT, no colour filter.

SKIN LOCK
Visible pores across nose and cheeks, peach fuzz along the cheek edge and jaw, natural sheen on the T-zone, freckles and small blemishes that vary in size and spacing, faint redness at the nostril edges and inner eye corners, natural facial asymmetry, individual eyelashes and brow hairs, flyaway hairs catching the light. Zero beauty filter, zero smoothing, zero airbrush, no plastic sheen, no AI-perfect symmetry.

BACKGROUND: plain warm off-white wall, no gradients, no environment, no shadows on the background
