Comic Staircase Fashion Portrait AI Photo Prompt

Using the uploaded photo, create a photorealistic vertical fashion editorial of the same person stepping down a surreal staircase built from floating black-and-white comic panels. KEEP — Preserve the subject's exact facial identity and recognizable face structure, including forehead shape, eyebrow placement, eye shape and natural eye colour, nose bridge and tip, lip shape, cheeks, cheekbones, jawline, chin, ears and natural facial asymmetry. Keep the original skin tone, visible pores, fine skin texture, natural marks, authentic age and original expression characteristics. Preserve the hairline, hairstyle, hair density, texture and colour. Retain facial hair exactly as shown, including its natural outline and density. Keep the original body proportions, shoulder width, neck length, limb anatomy and overall build. Do not replace the subject with a generic fashion model. CHANGE — Dress the subject in an oversized black-and-cream varsity jacket made from textured wool-blend fabric with ribbed cuffs, a plain dark cotton T-shirt, loose charcoal cargo trousers with visible flap pockets, and chunky black-and-white sneakers. Pose the subject stepping down one floating panel, with the leading sneaker close to the lens and the upper body leaning forward naturally. SCENE — Build a surreal architectural staircase from separate suspended rectangular comic panels. Each panel contains monochrome illustrated portraits of the same subject laughing, winking, looking surprised or appearing thoughtful. Add ink splashes, halftone dots, hand-drawn speed lines and rough brush marks. Keep the staircase edges distinct, with visible gaps between panels and soft shadows beneath each floating step. Use a seamless pale-grey studio background. LIGHT — Place a large softbox above and to the left of the camera, producing natural facial highlights and consistent shadows beneath the shoes and floating panels. Use neutral daylight-balanced lighting around 5500K. CAMERA — Shoot from a low camera height near the staircase's bottom step using a 28mm lens at f/4. Keep the face sharply focused while preserving detail in the nearest sneaker and enough background definition to read the comic staircase. GRADE — Use neutral skin tones, restrained contrast, deep charcoal blacks and clean paper whites. Keep the person in full colour while all comic illustrations remain strictly monochrome. OUTPUT — Vertical 4:5 aspect ratio, high-resolution 4096 × 5120 output, realistic anatomy, detailed fabrics and clean panel edges. DO NOT slim the face, whiten the skin, change eye colour, apply plastic smoothing, invent jewellery or tattoos, duplicate the real subject, distort the hands or feet, or turn the subject into a cartoon.
