Retouch only the facial area of Alphonse Elric’s helmet.
Keep the original image completely unchanged except for the front facial plate of Alphonse’s helmet.
Redraw Alphonse Elric’s helmet face to closely match his recognizable original Fullmetal Alchemist design, instantly recognizable as Alphonse Elric.
IMPORTANT:
preserve the current overall helmet silhouette, head size, head angle, horns, neck connection and perspective exactly as they are.
Do not redraw or reshape the entire head.
Only correct the facial structure and facial armor details.
Make the helmet face slightly longer, sharper and more angular rather than round or human-like.
Create a strong heavy armored brow above the eyes,
narrow recessed eye openings beneath the brow,
deep dark interior shadows inside the eye slits,
with only tiny subtle red glowing eyes visible deep inside.
The red eyes should be very small and restrained,
not bright glowing lights,
not large expressive anime eyes.
Correct the central nose guard and front facial plate so they feel like rigid metal armor rather than a human nose or face.
Define Alphonse’s characteristic angular cheek plates more clearly,
with strong geometric armored planes on both sides of the face.
Make the lower facial armor and jaw more angular and mechanical,
with a broad armored jawline and clearly constructed metal plates,
avoiding a rounded human-like chin or mouth.
Keep Alphonse completely expressionless.
His personality should come from his body language and interaction with Edward rather than from an expressive helmet face.
Preserve exactly the existing metallic material, silver-gray color, blue-green reflected light, highlights, shadows and painterly anime rendering.
The newly corrected facial area must blend seamlessly into the existing helmet.
