Photo to 3D Animated Film Character

Restyle the person in the attached photo as a 3D animated film character.

Keep: everything that makes them recognisable, including hairstyle and color, facial hair, glasses, skin tone, outfit, pose, expression, and the setting behind them.

Change: the rendering only. Rebuild them in the look of {{studio-look}}, with {{eye-style}}, a slightly enlarged head, simplified but tactile surfaces, and soft stylised hair.

Style: high-end 3D character render with subsurface skin glow, fabric with believable weave, and a softly blurred background in the same style.

Light: keep the original light direction, made warmer and softer.

No text, no logo, no watermark.
