Realistic Character with Doodle Shadow

Full prompt

Use the uploaded character reference image as the strict identity and outfit reference.

Preserve the reference character’s:
- face identity
- facial proportions
- eye shape
- nose
- lips
- skin tone
- hairstyle
- hair color
- visible hair accessories
- overall recognizable vibe
- outfit and styling shown in the reference image

Do not hardcode any specific character traits that are not present in the uploaded reference.
All identity, hairstyle, accessories, and clothing details must be inferred directly from the uploaded reference image.

Create a high-quality mixed-style vertical portrait showing:
1. a realistic full-body version of the uploaded character/person
2. a black hand-drawn doodle-shadow version of the same character/person on the wall beside them

Core concept:
The real person and their doodle-shadow are doing a {argument name="pose style" default="playful mischievous pose"} together.
The real person performs a cute realistic version of the pose, while the doodle-shadow performs a much more exaggerated, chaotic, cartoonish version of the same pose idea.
The mood should feel cute, playful, mischievous, stylish, funny, and social-media-friendly.

Real person:
- Must remain realistic and photogenic
- Must wear the same outfit style and key visible details from the uploaded reference image
- Do not replace the reference styling with unrelated fashion
- Expression should be {argument name="facial expression" default="cute, slightly confused, mildly embarrassed, playful"}, as if thinking: “Why am I doing this with my shadow?”
- The real person should not stand stiffly
- The real person should actively participate in the pose, but in a natural realistic way

Doodle-shadow:
- Must be a black hand-drawn sketch version of the same person, drawn directly on the wall
- Not a realistic second person
- Not a normal physical shadow
- Not a full-color anime character
- Black sketch line-art only
- Should resemble the person through hairstyle silhouette, accessories, outfit silhouette, and pose structure
- The doodle-shadow should look more energetic, sillier, and more chaotic than the real person
- Add manga-like motion lines, hearts, stars, sparkles, and comic marks around the doodle if helpful

Random mischievous pose rule:
The pose must NOT be fixed.

For each generation, invent a new {argument name="new pose" default="playful mischievous pose"} for both the real person and the doodle-shadow.
The real person and the doodle-shadow should share the same general pose idea, but they do not need to match perfectly.
The real person performs a cute realistic version.
The doodle-shadow performs a much more exaggerated, chaotic, cartoonish version.

Do not repeatedly use pointing poses.
Do not repeatedly use finger-gun poses.
Do not repeatedly use the same standing pose.
Do not always make both figures simply point at each other.

Create a different mischievous pose each time.

Possible pose directions are loose inspiration only, not a fixed menu:
- playful idol pose
- silly dance pose
- leaning sideways with one arm curved overhead
- making
