# Use my uploaded photo as the **ONLY identity reference** for the person. Transform my photo into a highly detailed, hand-drawn **colored pencil and graphite portrait** matching the visual style, composition, and finish described below.
Create a vertical portrait of me from approximately the chest/shoulders upward, facing directly toward the camera with a calm, confident, natural expression. **Preserve my exact facial identity and masculine appearance** with maximum accuracy. Keep my facial structure, face shape, jawline, cheekbones, forehead, nose, lips, eyes, eyebrows, ears, skin tone, facial hair pattern, hairline, and all distinctive facial characteristics faithful to my uploaded photo. Do not beautify, feminize, reshape, or replace my features. My face must remain immediately recognizable as me.
Render the entire image as a **traditional hand-drawn colored-pencil and graphite illustration on textured beige/off-white paper**. Use extremely fine pencil strokes, visible cross-hatching, layered colored-pencil shading, subtle graphite outlines, realistic facial proportions, delicate skin texture, and natural hand-drawn imperfections. The illustration should feel like an expertly crafted realistic portrait sketch rather than a digital painting, cartoon, vector illustration, or AI-generated artwork.
Use the hairstyle from my uploaded photo, rendered with thousands of individual pencil strokes and realistic strand detail. Preserve my facial hair exactly as it appears in my photo, with individual beard and mustache hairs drawn naturally.
Dress me in a **bright orange casual hoodie** with a realistic hood around the neck and visible cream/off-white drawstrings. Render the hoodie entirely with layered orange colored-pencil strokes, subtle folds, fabric texture, shadows, and hand-drawn cross-hatching.
Behind my head, create a large **rough circular orange colored-pencil/crayon brushstroke halo**, similar to an imperfect hand-drawn circle. It should be vivid orange, heavily textured, slightly uneven, and made from many overlapping pencil/crayon strokes. Keep the halo behind the head and shoulders without covering the face.
Background: warm **aged beige textured drawing paper**, with subtle paper grain, faint pencil marks, light sketch lines, and natural imperfections around the edges. Keep the background simple and uncluttered.
Lighting should be represented through realistic pencil shading, with soft highlights on the face and deeper graphite shadows around the hair, beard, neck, hoodie folds, and facial contours.
**Overall aesthetic:** premium editorial hand-drawn portrait, realistic colored-pencil artwork, graphite and colored-pencil mixed media, intricate cross-hatching, tactile paper texture, expressive pencil strokes, highly detailed facial rendering, sophisticated artistic illustration, natural imperfections, warm orange and beige palette, museum-quality traditional sketch.
**Composition:** centered head-and-shoulders portrait, symmetrical frontal framing, face as the main focal point, orange halo behind the head, vertical composition, minimal background distractions.
Do not add glasses, earrings, tattoos, jewelry, text, logos, watermarks, extra people, or unnecessary objects. Do not change my identity or make me look like another person. Do not make the image photorealisticโthe final result must clearly look like a **realistic hand-drawn colored-pencil portrait on pape
