Polychrome Carved Wooden Sculpture Portrait

Prompt

SCULPTURE MATERIAL
The subject is carved from painted wood or resin (polychrome sculpture style).

Skin is no longer skin:
It becomes a matte carved surface with visible tool marks, tiny cracks, subtle paint wear, and hardened edges.

Add:
• chisel planes on cheeks and forehead
• carved eyelids and nostrils
• slightly flattened planes instead of soft flesh
• painted but slightly aged coloration

HAIR (CRITICAL — THIS DEFINES THE STYLE)
Hair must NOT look real.

The hair is sculpted:
• carved locks and grooves
• thick grouped strands
• simplified shapes
• visible chisel cuts
• rigid structure
• no flyaways, no softness, no realistic strands

Think: artisan statue hair, not human hair.

CLOTHING
Clothing becomes carved fabric:
• simplified folds
• hardened drapery
• painted texture
• slightly worn edges

COMPOSITION
• chest-up bust
• mounted on a round pedestal base
• centered framing
• neutral studio background
• soft museum lighting
• photographed like an art catalog

AVOID
real skin texture
photoreal pores
