Hyper-Realistic Clay Bust From Photo Template
A template prompt that transforms the uploaded photo into a hyper-realistic modeling clay bust (head, neck, upper shoulders), preserving identity and expression. It enforces real clay texture, subtle fingerprints and imperfections, and a clean studio product-photo setup for a believable physical sculpture look.
Content
Use the uploaded photo as the only identity reference. Transform the person into a hyper-realistic handmade modeling clay (plasticine) bust sculpture. SUBJECT - Create a bust only: head + neck + upper shoulders (no full body). - Keep the person clearly recognizable: same facial proportions, eyes, nose, lips, jawline, hairstyle. - Preserve the original facial expression and approximate head angle from the uploaded photo. - No beautification, no age change. REAL CLAY MATERIAL (MUST LOOK PHYSICAL) - Must look like real modeling clay, not CGI, not porcelain, not wax. - Show subtle hand-made realism: faint fingerprints, tiny tool marks, soft smudges, gentle dents, slight seam lines where clay pieces meet. - Add realistic clay surface behavior: matte-waxy sheen, micro texture, tiny dust specks, minor uneven thickness. SCULPTING DETAILS - Hair: sculpted clay strands/clumps with believable direction and volume, slightly imperfect alignment. - Skin: layered clay look with fine micro texture (not airbrushed smooth). - Eyes: clay-crafted eyes (not glossy realistic eyeballs). If separate pieces are used, show tiny join lines. - Lips and nose: soft clay transitions, realistic handmade edges. COLOR & FINISH - Natural clay color palette for skin and lips; hair as clay (not real hair). - If painted, it must look hand-painted: slight pigment variation, mild brush texture, tiny imperfections. - No extra accessories unless clearly present in the uploaded photo. PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE (MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A REAL PRODUCT PHOTO) - Studio product photo of a physical sculpture: realistic 85mm lens look, natural depth of field. - Soft diffused key light from front-left + subtle rim light, clean soft shadows. - Neutral seamless background: solid off-white or light gray. - Add a realistic contact shadow and a subtle tabletop surface texture. COMPOSITION & QUALITY - Centered composition, chest-up framing, clean margins. - Ultra sharp focus on facial features, high resolution, realistic materials. NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS - No cartoon/anime style. - No 3D render look, no plastic toy look, no porcelain, no wax museum skin. - No text, no logos, no watermark.
