FACE IDENTITY LOCK (CRITICAL)

The subject’s face must exactly match the uploaded reference face in:

bone structure, facial proportions, jawline, cheekbones

eye shape, eyelids, iris placement, eyebrow thickness

nose bridge, nostrils, lips, mouth width

skin texture, pores, natural imperfections

No beautification, no stylization, no face drift

The face must remain perfectly consistent and recognizable from all angles (front, 3/4, side, slight tilt)

Maintain real skin tone, natural lighting interaction, realistic shadows

Identity must remain stable even with smile and head movement
