Using the character in the reference image as the prototype, preserve the facial features, expression, clothing, and body pose, remove the original background, and recreate it as a master-level black-and-white pen figure sketch. Employ refined traditional pen drawing techniques, using lively and fluid ink lines, fine cross-hatching, natural broken strokes, and bold negative space to build the figure's sense of volume and artistic tension. Render the face with fine detail, vary the density of the clothing lines, and retain traces of the initial sketch and casual unfinished brushwork in places, presenting the texture of a real artist's hand-drawn original work. Warm ivory vintage sketch paper, with clearly visible paper fibers and delicate ink marks, and rich layers of black, white, and gray. Minimalist art album layout, with large areas of negative space, accented in the corners with a handwritten signature and creation date. Overall elegant, free, and rich in artistic collectible value, rejecting digital tracing and any AI-filter feel, 9:16 vertical high-definition composition.
