3D Latte Art Magazine Tutorial Layout

Based on the attached character, generate a Japanese high-quality café and cuisine magazine-style 'How to Make 3D Latte Art' feature page.

【Format】

- 3:4 vertical, single page
- No spreads, 2-page splits, central binding
- Minimal margins
- Ivory, milk white, pale brown tone
- Elegant and easy-to-read editorial design
- Minimal text, images as the main focus

【Most Important: Image Composition】

The images in the magazine are composed of the following 4 points only.
1. Small attached character reference image

2. Small white foam sculpting in-progress image
3. Small rough coloring in-progress image
4. One large completed image
The image of the completed 3D latte art must be only one in the page.

Do not depict completed face, eyes, mouth, or finely colored details in the small 3 images.
Completed face, eyes, mouth, and finely colored details should only be in the large completed image.

【Character】

Refer to the attached image as the highest priority.
Maintain face, eyes, hairstyle, hair color, expression, decorations, characteristic colors, and atmosphere so that it is immediately recognizable as the same character.
Express as a cute deformed 3D latte art made from milk foam, not as a person, figure, clay, or doll.

【Fixed Steps】

The content and order of the steps do not change.
STEP 1:

Reference image of the attached character.
Image to confirm face, hair, eyes, coloring, decorations.
Do not draw latte art or cup.

STEP 2:

Image of white milk foam piled on a coffee cup, only making the rough 3D shape of the head, hair, face, and body.
White only, no details, no eyes, mouth, or color.
State of slightly uneven production with piled round bubbles.

STEP 3:

Image of coloring the hair, eyes, and decorations roughly on the foam from STEP 2 using cocoa, matcha, coffee, milk, edible coloring, etc.
Coloring is light and rough, incomplete.
Eyes and mouth are not drawn, or only partially, not making a completed expression.
State that it is clearly before finishing.

【Placement of Step Images】

Only the 3 images of STEP 1, STEP 2, and STEP 3 are placed as small continuous images.
Place them in a natural arrangement such as horizontal row, vertical row, L-shape, staircase, etc.
Must attach numbers "1", "2", "3" to the 3 images.
Arrows or lines connect from:

STEP 1 to STEP 2,
STEP 2 to STEP 3,
STEP 3 directly to the outer frame of the large completed image or the latte art within the completed image.
Do not create a new small frame after STEP 3.

Do not generate a small completed image or a 4th step image as the endpoint of arrows.
The last arrow extending from STEP 3 should directly reach the large completed image already existing on the page.

【Large Completed Image】

There is only one completed image on the page.
Place it as the largest image occupying about 50–70% of the magazine layout.
Make it overwhelmingly larger than any other image.
Do not make the completed image a separate small frame; treat it as the main hero photo of the page.
A large cup occupies the screen, and the completed 3D latte art's face and three-dimensionality are clearly visible.

Choose the camera naturally from the same height as the latte, slight overhead, diagonal composition, close-up, etc.
Wooden table, warm café lighting, shallow depth of field, soft blurred background.
Do not include people or unnecessary objects.
Fine white milk foam sculpted into a cute chibi character.

Soft rounded foam with slight handmade imperfections.
Preserve the attached character’s recognizable face, hairstyle, eyes, expression, decorations and signature colors.
Use only subtle cocoa, matcha, coffee, milk and edible coloring.
Soft color bleeding, not solid paint.
Eyes and mouth drawn with cocoa or chocolate syrup.
Detailed foam texture, milk gloss and coffee reflections.
Realistic latte texture, refined high-quality illustration, warm natural light.
No text inside the completed latte photo.

【Title】

Generate a short heading with the same meaning as the following.
「{argument name="タイトル" default="ふわふわ泡で、3Dラテアート"}」

「泡からつくる、3Dラテアート」
「いつものラテを、立体アートに」
Subtitle examples:

「のせて、整えて、色をつけるだけ。」
「泡を盛って、色を添えれば完成。」

【Introduction Text】

Within 2–3 lines.
Content is "pile foam on latte → lightly shape → add color and face to complete".
Make it look not difficult and express that it can be made easily.
Example:

"Pile foam lightly on the latte.
Shape it and add color to complete."

【Step Explanations】

Within 1–2 lines each. Paraphrase naturally with the same meaning.
STEP 1:

"First, confirm the image."
"Lightly check the features of hair and eyes."
STEP 2:

"Pile the foam and roughly shape."
"Pile round foam to make the rough shape."
STEP 3:

"Add color and lightly shape."
"Lightly add color to the hair and eyes."

【Short Text Near Completion】

Place 1–2 from the following.
"Finally, draw the face to complete."
"Add eyes and mouth, and it's done."
"With a little adjustment, it's already complete."
"Small differences are the foam's personality."

【Supplementary Text】

Place 2–4 non-overlapping small texts from the following.
「{argument name="補足文" default="ふわっと盛る"}」

「ざっくりでOK」
「色は少しずつ」
「丸くのせれば大丈夫」
「細かいところは泡におまかせ」
「似ていれば成功」
「思ったより、かんたん。」

【Randomization】

Do not change the meaning of the article, the order of steps, the image content, or the completed work.
Only naturally vary the image positions, sizes, cropping, frames, arrows, heading positions, and short description texts.
Always keep only one completed image and do not duplicate.
