Holo Card Studio

Holo Card Studio

Create a finished collectible card project. The skill has two production routes that share one art direction and one delivery standard.

Route first

Choose exactly one route before preparing assets:

• Holographic foil is the default route for one character artwork. It uses separate subject, background, lineart, and text planes, plus foil and sparkle effects.
• Two-image lenticular is the route for 光栅, 翻转, 双图, 双形态, or 一念神魔. It uses two complete card artworks, A and B, and changes the whole card with viewing angle. Do not split one picture into left/right halves and do not fake the two states with SVG.

If the user asks for 一念神魔, route to lenticular automatically.

Default art direction

Read references/art-direction.md before generating art. Unless the user supplies another style, every generated card uses full-color Japanese ukiyo-e composition with colored sumi-e anime linework: expressive thick-to-thin ink contours, mineral pigments, visible brush texture, dramatic movement, and a coherent illustrated environment.

For a two-state card, generate A first, then edit A into B with the image-generation tool. Repeat the identity and composition invariants in the edit prompt. Keep the same face structure, hair/fur, costume anchors, proportions, camera, crop, body scale, and major silhouette. Expressions must clearly communicate the state: the benevolent state is serene, compassionate, and resolute; the malevolent state has focused predatory eyes, sharper brows, and a controlled feral or cruel expression without changing identity.

Foil and diamond sparkle are presentation layers, not substitutes for artwork. Default foil and particles to 1.0; keep the face readable and preserve the ink contours.

Generate images

Use the built-in image-generation tool for raster artwork. Do not ask the user to generate the images elsewhere. Do not use SVG or procedural stand-ins when a final illustration is requested.

For no-reference generation:

1. Generate the complete A artwork from the character brief using the default style.
2. Generate B by editing A. Lock identity, framing, and major geometry; change the expression, state-specific costume details, lighting, atmosphere, and action effects.
3. Save both as portrait PNG files with identical dimensions.

For reference-driven generation, treat the reference as the identity source and A as the direct adaptation. Then edit A into B. Read references/lenticular-route.md for the required prompt structure and alignment checks.

Build the project

Create a user-owned project directory outside this skill. Copy the matching example config and prepare its assets.

Holographic assets:

textCopy code
assets/subject.png
assets/background.png
assets/lineart.png
assets/text.png
card-config.json

Lenticular assets:

textCopy code
assets/image_a.png
assets/image_b.png
assets/text.png
card-config.json

Run the shared dispatcher:

powershellCopy code
python scripts/run_pipeline.py --project <project-dir> --mode holographic
python scripts/run_pipeline.py --project <project-dir> --mode lenticular

--mode may be omitted when card-config.json contains "mode". The default is holographic.

For lenticular projects, run scripts/lenticular/prepare_pair.py before the pipeline when normalization or an alignment report is needed. The pipeline creates typography when text.png is absent, validates assets, builds card.blend, renders previews, exports web/assets/card.glb, copies the matching web viewer, and installs its local web dependencies unless --skip-npm is supplied.

Verify and deliver

Read references/verification.md. At minimum verify:

• the Blender scene contains physical card depth and multiple effect planes;
• A and B replace the entire illustrated face and remain recognizable as one character;
• front and angled renders show a readable state change;
• foil, glitter, line glow, and lenticular ridges are visible without washing out the face;
• the white web viewer loads the GLB and supports pointer/touch tilt without horizontal overflow.

Deliver the source images, card.blend, renders, web viewer, and a validation report. Keep generated binaries in the project, never inside the reusable skill archive.
