### Pre-Filled Template & Production Source

```txt
STYLE NAME: "Sang-o-Sayeh Render" (invented style — do not reference any known art style, filter, anime, Pixar, comic, or painting tradition)

SUBJECT: Recreate the exact man from the reference photos — same identity, fully recognizable: elongated lean face, defined jawline with short dark stubble, deep-set dark brown eyes with a calm-intense gaze, straight nose, short black textured hair with natural upward volume, tall slim proportions (long limbs, narrow shoulders-to-height ratio). His likeness must read instantly as HIM.

RENDER LANGUAGE (the invented part):
- A hybrid medium that does not exist yet: skin rendered like matte hand-polished ceramic with faint carved topographic contour lines following the facial planes — not painterly, not 3D-plastic, not cel-shaded.
- Hair treated as sculpted graphite fiber: individual strands simplified into 5–7 directional ribbons with a dry charcoal micro-grain.
- Fabric of clothing behaves like folded paper-linen: sharp origami creases but soft woven texture inside each fold.
- Edges of the figure carry a 1–2px hairline of warm copper light, as if the character was cut out of the scene and re-inserted.
- Color logic: desaturated bone-white, deep ink-navy, raw clay, and one single accent of oxidized copper. No gradients except inside shadows, which dissolve into fine paper grain instead of black.
- Lighting: one invisible overhead source, shadows fall as flat geometric shapes with slightly torn edges — shadow as a graphic object, not optics.

POSE / WARDROBE (variable per image): relaxed contrapposto stand, hands loose or one hand adjusting a cuff; modern collarless structured shirt and tapered trousers — silhouette contemporary, unbranded, timeless.

ENVIRONMENT: extreme minimal void — a single seamless bone-white plane meeting a clay-toned floor, one thin horizontal copper line at knee height as the only scene element. Nothing else. Negative space is 70% of the frame.

MOOD: quiet confidence, sculptural stillness, museum-piece presence.

STRICT NEGATIVES: no photorealism, no cartoon exaggeration, no known art style names, no busy background, no props competing with the subject, no altered facial identity, no changed body proportions.
