Transform the uploaded reference photo [Upload Your Image] into a semi-realistic pencil sketch, preserving 100% of the subject’s facial features, expression, hair, eyes, nose, and mouth.
Enhance realistic texture, subtle shading, and lighting effects, while maintaining the artistic feel of a hand-drawn sketch.
Scene Description:
The subject is holding a lit match to his lips, the small flame casting a warm orange glow on his face.
• The soft light illuminates the contours of his skin and lips, creating striking contrast against the monochromatic pencil strokes.
• Eyes reflect the flame softly, adding depth and subtle emotion.
• Slightly tousled hair is highlighted by the flame, with individual strands visible in fine pencil detail.
• His expression is calm and introspective, exuding mystery and serene intensity.
Lighting & Contrast:
• The warm flame serves as a key light, blending realism with artistic shading.
• Shadows are softly rendered, emphasizing the face, lips, and hand.
• Pencil textures should show natural grain and pressure variation, creating depth and tactile realism.
Technical & Artistic Details:
• Semi-realistic style, not fully photorealistic, balancing fine detail with expressive sketch lines.
• Emphasize facial features, hair, and hand anatomy.
• Monochromatic pencil tones with selective warm orange highlights from the flame.
• Clean composition, focus on face and match, minimal background distractions.
Signature:
Add a discreet signature “@dayno_ai” in the bottom-right corner, using a color that contrasts naturally with the sketch — for example, a slightly darker or lighter tone than the background to remain visible but subtle.
