The subject is the man in the attached reference photo. Recreate his exact facial identity from its features — the same hairline, hairstyle, volume and texture, brow shape, eye shape and spacing, nose structure, lip shape, jawline and cheek structure, beard pattern and density, skin tone, and natural facial proportions — so he is unmistakably the same person. The reference photo's own lighting, background and clothing are entirely discarded.

SAGE BANDHGALA PRIDE. A tonal sage world: flat muted-sage background, and he wears a deeper sage bandhgala buttoned to the collar, drawn with a clean structured shoulder line. The single hook: quiet formal pride — chin level, eyes steady at the viewer, the smallest composed smile, one hand adjusting the top button with a light two-finger touch, fingers countable. A single gold collar pin is the only ornament. His beard and hair are drawn sharp and groomed in fine lines. The sage field stays flatter and softer than his face. Camera framing equivalent to an 85mm portrait, chest-up. Palette: muted sage, deep sage, gold.

A premium flat vector illustration — not a photograph and not a 3D render: smooth clean colour fields with soft cel shading, crisp confident edges, no gradients banding, no outlines except where the drawing needs them, and the hair drawn with fine flowing individual strand linework that carries real volume and movement. The facial features survive the stylisation exactly — the same eyes, brows, nose, lips, jawline and proportions as the reference at all times — with the face carrying the most detail and the most careful shading in the whole image, softly dimensional against the flatter cloth and background so it reads sharpest. Fabric patterns are drawn as clean repeated motifs. The background is one perfectly flat colour with no texture and no scenery. Vertical 9:16 portrait composed for an Instagram story, WhatsApp status and profile picture: the face large and high in the frame, the tonal colour world unmistakable at a glance, and the composition still holding when cropped square. No readable text anywhere — no words, no letters, no numbers, no logos, no brands.
