# Character Image Direction
|
|
|
|
## Goal
|
|
|
|
Create high-impact base character images for a mature romance dating game. Each image should communicate the character's age, personality, body type, fashion sense, sensual appeal, and romantic tone at a glance.
|
|
|
|
## Baseline Prompt Rules
|
|
|
|
- Solo adult woman, clearly 19 or older.
|
|
- Full-body standing key art, vertical composition.
|
|
- Main direction: glossy anime romance game key art with saturated color, crisp linework, expressive eyes, polished skin highlights, and stronger character-specific silhouettes.
|
|
- Use bright romance-game presentation, attractive adult proportions, vivid fashion readability, and bold facial identity.
|
|
- Legacy semi-realistic and pure photoreal styles are now comparison tests only, not the target.
|
|
- Mature, attractive, unmistakably sensual fashion and body language.
|
|
- No nudity, explicit sex act, fetish framing, school uniform, childlike styling, or ambiguous age.
|
|
- No text, logo, watermark, extra characters, or busy background.
|
|
- Use generous margins so the character can be used as a standing portrait asset.
|
|
|
|
## Quality Checklist
|
|
|
|
An image passes only when all of these are true:
|
|
|
|
- The character clearly reads as an adult.
|
|
- Outfit, pose, expression, and silhouette match the character brief.
|
|
- Face identity is distinct from the rest of the cast, not just the same face with different hair or clothing.
|
|
- Face shape, eye shape, brow style, nose/mouth proportions, hairstyle, makeup intensity, and expression habit should all reinforce the character archetype.
|
|
- Even shy or pure-hearted characters still carry visible adult sensual charm through styling, posture, and lighting.
|
|
- Body type is distinct from the rest of the cast.
|
|
- Face is appealing, stable, and not uncanny.
|
|
- Hands, legs, and feet have no obvious anatomy errors.
|
|
- The asset works as a base standing image in a character screen.
|
|
- Resolution is high enough for production review, or the asset is marked as a draft for upscaling/regeneration.
|
|
|
|
## Cast Variety Targets
|
|
|
|
- Avoid making every character the same face, height, pose, and body shape.
|
|
- Do not default every character to the same oval face, long dark hair, soft eyes, small nose, and gentle smile.
|
|
- Rotate visual tone: warm, shy, sharp, glamorous, mature, athletic, artistic, elegant, casual.
|
|
- Use fashion to signal route identity before the player reads text.
|
|
- Keep sensuality character-specific: shy routes should feel quietly irresistible, career routes sharply confident, public-image routes glamorous, and mature routes restrained but intense.
|
|
|
|
## Facial Identity Rules
|
|
|
|
- Every character prompt must include at least three facial differentiators: face shape, eye shape, brow style, hairstyle, makeup level, expression habit, or facial maturity.
|
|
- Similar hairstyle and face structure are allowed only when the route concept demands it; otherwise vary hair length, bangs, parting, styling, and volume.
|
|
- Approval requires comparing the candidate against existing assets at thumbnail size and full size.
|
|
- If a candidate looks like another character in cosplay, mark it `needs_revision` instead of `accepted`.
