Realistic Speculative Creature Design Prompt

INPUT ::= [CREATURE_CONCEPT] STEP_1 :: infer biology - what it eats, and what eats it - locomotion, and the skeleton that permits exactly that gait - respiration, thermoregulation, sensory organ placement - the earth ancestor it visibly descends from - one feature that makes no sense until you know the habitat STEP_2 :: infer the surface passes - base dermis: scale, chitin, hide, feather sheath - subdermal translucency - where light passes through thin tissue - displacement: pores, keratin cracking, old scarring, parasites - wetness map: where mucus, saliva, and ocular fluid actually pool STEP_3 :: infer the sheet contents - neutral A-pose beside one dynamic pose - skull and skeletal overlay at matched scale - three head studies: at rest, threat display, feeding - material crops at four times magnification - human silhouette for scale, same lighting STEP_4 :: infer the pipeline layer - untextured grey clay sculpt pass beside the final lookdev pass - wireframe topology inset showing edge flow - neutral studio HDRI turntable, no environment storytelling STEP_5 :: render spec - design-bible layout, annotations in small caps - subsurface scattering accurate to actual flesh thickness - forbidden: fantasy glow, stylisation, heroic posing - treat it as a documented animal, not a monster
