Shivering Snowball Friend · Selective Echo Contours

SUBJECT
One original snowball character with a round snow body, two small mitten-shaped hands, two short feet, dot eyes, and a small wavering mouth. Its hands are tucked close to its body and both feet rest on the same ground, conveying a cold, contained shiver.

COMPOSITION
Use a front-facing full-body view centered in a square frame. Leave generous pale background around the character, especially beside its body, so the repeated contours remain distinct. Keep the face unobstructed and the feet visibly grounded.

STYLE GUIDE
1. Shape & line
Draw a clear, rounded primary body outline, then add two short echo arcs just outside the image-left flank and two outside the image-right flank. Follow the local body curvature, leave visible gaps between strokes, and stagger their endpoints so they suggest side-to-side trembling rather than additional bodies. Keep the facial features and feet single and crisp.

2. Color & light
Use an off-white snow body against a pale blue background, with muted blue-gray outlines. Make the echo arcs lighter than the primary outline. Add a broad cool shadow along the lower body and a soft lighter area toward the upper image-left, keeping the eyes and mouth the darkest accents.

3. Texture & material
Render packed snow with sparse, soft-edged grain patches inside the body, leaving the face and outer contour mostly clean. Use matte digital brushwork with no glossy highlights, and keep grain quieter than the repeated contour strokes so texture does not compete with the shiver.

4. Composition
Keep the character compact and centered, with its hands tucked below the cheeks and a small gap between its feet. Reserve clear background beside both flanks for the echo arcs. Place one faint oval ground shadow directly beneath the feet, without duplicating it, to hold the character in place while the body appears to tremble.

PRIORITY
Preserve the requested identity, count, action, composition and output settings. Apply the style rules within those constraints; a style reference must not replace the subject or layout. Within the style: Make the selective echo contours read as a small shiver while preserving one unmistakable character.

AVOID
Avoid full duplicated silhouettes, blurred facial features, and long sweeping motion trails.

OUTPUT
Create one square digital illustration with no lettering, captions, logos, or watermark.

SELF-CHECK
Check that both flanks have separate light echo arcs, while the face, feet, and ground shadow remain single.
