REFERENCE: [uploaded image of person] The person as a low-poly PlayStation 1 character model on a rain-slicked 1990s city street. Chunky polygons, warping textures, heavy fog. CRITICAL LIKENESS: RECOGNIZABLE despite extreme polygon reduction. Glasses, headwear, and clothing colors are the key identifiers. USE LIKENESS ONLY, NOT pose. ENTIRELY 3D RENDERED in period low-poly style. ONE SINGLE IMAGE. EXACTLY ONE PERSON. HEADWEAR AND GLASSES: Beanie KEPT as a simple faceted ochre polygon shape. Glasses KEPT as a crude dark rectangular block across the face. Both blocky, not finely modeled. PS1 TECHNIQUE: - Extremely low polygon count, visible flat triangular faces - Hands as simple mitten shapes - Face as a flat textured plane, features painted on - Texture warping and swimming, affine mapping wobble - Vertex jitter, hard aliased edges, no antialiasing - Very low resolution blurry textures - Simple flat vertex lighting THE MODEL: Blocky torso, simple limb geometry. Clothing as painted texture, not modeled folds. Stiff neutral standing pose. Facial hair as a dark painted texture patch. The crudeness of 1997. THE SCENE: Wet 1990s city street at night. Blocky buildings, flat textured facades. Repeating tiled ground textures. A streetlamp, a dumpster, a six-polygon car. Neon signs as flat glowing planes. Puddles as simple reflective patches. THE FOG: Heavy distance fog swallowing everything past a short range. Buildings fading into solid dark blue-grey. The fog hiding the edge of the level. RENDERING: Roughly 320 by 240 upscaled. Visible pixelation and dithering. Color banding. CRT scanlines optional. COLORS: Muted dark palette with bright neon accents. Deep blues and greys. Ochre beanie as a small bright polygon note. COMPOSITION: Third person camera slightly above and behind, or a fixed survival horror angle down the street. Environment dominant. MOOD: "Fyra polygoner för ett ansikte, och ändå känner du igen honom." 1997, and the world ends tio meter bort. Format: 4:3
