Muppets Character Transformation

Transform the person in the uploaded photo into a Muppet character — a felt puppet version of themselves in Jim Henson's signature Muppet design style. Use the uploaded image as the ONLY identity reference. The subject should become a PUPPET, not a cartoon or illustration. **IDENTITY RETENTION (STRICT):** – Preserve the subject's hairstyle, hair color, skin tone (as felt color), expression, and clothing style – The puppet must be recognizable as THIS specific person, just in Muppet form – Glasses, accessories, and distinctive features should be recreated in puppet materials **MUPPET PUPPET DESIGN:** – Constructed from felt, foam, and fabric — visible textile texture on all surfaces – Oversized, expressive googly eyes (the signature Muppet look) positioned on top of the head – Wide, hinged mouth that opens expressively – Slightly oversized head relative to body (puppet proportions) – Hair made from yarn, fake fur, or styled felt — textured and slightly messy – Hands are simple mitten-style puppet hands (4 fingers) in matching felt – Clothing recreated in miniature fabric — slightly rumpled and puppet-scale **SCENE:** – The Muppet character posed on the Muppet Show stage or backstage area – Classic red curtain backdrop with footlights – Include one recognizable Muppet (Kermit, Fozzie, or Gonzo) beside or behind them – Theatrical, warm stage lighting **OUTPUT:** – 3/4 body shot showing the puppet construction clearly – The image should look like a PHOTOGRAPH of a real puppet, not an illustration – Warm, slightly soft lighting as if photographed on the actual Muppet set **NEGATIVE CONSTRAINTS:** – This is NOT a cartoon or anime style — it must look like a real, physical felt puppet – No smooth digital skin — everything must have visible fabric/felt texture – No realistic human proportions — Muppet proportions are exaggerated and puppet-like – Do not make them look like any existing Muppet character – No dark or moody lighting — Muppets are warm and joyful
