How this AI photo cartoonizer works

The classic cartoonizer failure is likeness drift: the output looks like a different person. The instruction here locks it — same face shape, hairstyle, clothing and pose, bold outlines, flat cel-shaded colors, simplified background. Friends should recognize them at a glance.
