Промт для реставрации и колоризации советского семейного фото

Colorize this existing photo using the late 1980s SVEMA color palette: moderate saturation with a neutral-to-warm bias, natural skin tones, and slightly muted midtones that reflect late Soviet-era film stock.

1. DAMAGE MAP: Focus restoration on the upper-left sky area where grain is heavy, the vertical grain lines throughout the concrete apartment blocks in the background, and the micro-scratches on the darker clothing of both subjects.

2. BACKGROUND/ENVIRONMENT: Apply identical restoration and colorization quality to the massive Soviet "Panelka" apartment buildings. Colorize the concrete walls with realistic aged-grey and weathered beige tones. Each window frame, balcony railing, and structural seam must be sharp and detailed. The sky should be a desaturated, hazy light blue typical of industrial Eastern Europe. Restore the distant skyscrapers on the right with the same sharpness as the foreground.

3. FOREGROUND: Restore the concrete rooftop surface with high-resolution texture, showing the grit and variations in the pavement. The cigarettes and rising smoke must be colorized with natural white and ash-grey tones, maintaining sharp edges against the subjects.

4. CLOTHING: Focus 70% of effort here. For the person on the left, restore the quilted texture and nylon sheen of the dark puffer jacket; colorize it in a deep navy or black with visible stitching and zipper detail. The checkered shirt underneath must show sharp red/blue or green/brown patterns with clear fabric weave. For the person on the right, fully restore the unique constructivist-style tunic. Colorize the portrait of Lenin with tan skin and black hair, the surrounding geometric shapes in bold but matte Soviet reds and blacks, and the sleeves in an off-white cotton texture. The leather cap must have a realistic black hide sheen with visible creasing.

5. EDGES AND CORNERS: Eliminate the vignetting and corner softening. The left-most windows and the right-side horizon must be as sharp and realistically colorized as the center.

6. FACES: Restore skin with a warm-neutral to cool-neutral Eastern European tone—STRICTLY FORBIDDEN: orange, terracotta, or ghostly white. Maintain all real skin textures, including the slight squint of the eyes and natural shadows under the cap. Skin must look alive and textured, not waxy or smooth. Hair must show individual strand detail.

WARNING: You have a natural bias toward faces. COMPENSATE—apply extra restoration and colorization effort to background, clothing, and foreground. Natural analog-film palette—moderate saturation, warm-neutral tones. ALL areas processed with EQUAL quality. Over-process background and clothing to ensure uniform detail.

ANTI-BIAS ALERT: You naturally focus restoration/colorization on FACES while leaving background, clothing, and foreground under-processed. This is the #1 quality failure. Consciously counteract this.

MANDATORY UNIFORM QUALITY CHECK:
- Background sharpness = Face sharpness (NOT less)
- Clothing detail = Face detail (fabric weave, buttons fully visible)
- Foreground objects = Faces (flowers, grass, objects NOT blurry)
- Edges/corners = Center of image (NOT softer or less restored)
Any area less sharp or colorized than faces is a FAILURE — redo that area.

ABSOLUTE RULES — NEVER VIOLATE:
- YOU ARE RESTORING/COLORIZING AN EXISTING PHOTO — not generating a new one. Every pixel must correspond to the original image.
- DO NOT recreate, reimagine, or regenerate any part of the scene — work only with what is already in the photo
- DO NOT add, invent, or hallucinate any part of the image that is not in the original
- DO NOT change the framing or composition — keep it exactly the same
- DO NOT add any new damage, folds, creases, tears, dark borders, vignettes, or artifacts
- DO NOT change, replace, or alter any person's face, body, or identity
- DO NOT add or remove any person or object
- DO NOT modernize clothing, hairstyles, or any visual elements
- Keep the exact same framing, crop, and aspect ratio as the original
- SKIN COLOR: Eastern European skin = warm-neutral to cool-neutral, medium tone. NEVER red or orange. NEVER ghostly pale or washed-out. NEVER airbrushed or plastic. DO NOT add acne, spots or marks not in the original
- COLOR SATURATION: Keep overall saturation MODERATE — natural analog film look. NOT vivid digital. NOT pale or desaturated`
- SKIN TONES: natural, warm, lifelike — NOT red, NOT orange, NOT pale/washed-out, NOT plastic/airbrushed
- DO NOT smooth, airbrush, or beautify faces — preserve ALL natural skin texture (pores, subtle imperfections)
- SATURATION: moderate and natural — like a real color photograph. NOT oversaturated, NOT pale/washed-out
- CONTRAST: moderate — natural tonal range, no HDR
- All colors natural and lifelike — real photograph look
- Apply uniform sharpness to the ENTIRE image — NO background blur
