CRITICAL RULES
- Сохранить: структуру лица, черты, тон кожи, цвет глаз, пропорции.
- Объект должен выглядеть естественно сфотографированным в сцене, а не вставленным.
- Фотореалистичный результат, высокая детализация текстур, высокое качество, разрешение и микродетали уровня 8K (максимальная резкость и точность поверхностей).
