Use the single uploaded photo as the sole reference. Create one 3:4 portrait-format image combining the original photo with a Chinese light-color freehand comic rendition. Output each image independently; do not create a collage or combine multiple photos.

**Fixed layout:** Divide the canvas into two equal horizontal halves, each occupying exactly 50% of the canvas width. Align them seamlessly at the center, with no border or dividing line. No content may cross the centerline. Keep the entire comic and its surrounding blank space within the lower half.

**Upper half — original photo:** Preserve the original photographic appearance, composition, subject, colors, lighting, and spatial relationships. Only proportional scaling and cropping of nonessential background areas are allowed. Do not redraw, recolor, add or remove elements, or distort the image.

**Lower half — light-color freehand comic:** Re-render the same scene as a refined Chinese light-color freehand comic. Use expressive ink-gray and ochre-brown lines, with pale ochre, gray-green, vermilion, golden yellow, and paper white; retain other natural colors from the source photo where needed. Use clear linework, light coloring, and simplified forms to depict the subject and setting. Preserve key contours, structure, perspective, and foreground/background relationships. Do not alter the subject’s defining features or add anything absent from the original photo.

**Blank space and finish:** Let the comic occupy approximately two-thirds of the lower half, with the remaining blank space distributed naturally around it rather than in mechanically equal margins. Use bright, clean fine-textured art paper. Keep colors clear and fresh, lines crisp, and layers airy. Reduce noise and avoid dirty gray tones, heavy water stains, excessive bleeding, and a plastic appearance.
