---
## 🚫 FORBIDDEN CHANGES:
**DO NOT:**
- Change outline thickness

- Remove pupils from eyes (Style 32 HAS pupils!)
- Use gradients or shading
- Change chibi ratio
- Modify reference colors
- Make zombies "too cute" or "too scary"
- Give Gronk more than 2 arms
- Give Gronk cigarette instead of vape
---
## ✅ ANIMATION WORKFLOW:
**When generating animations:**
1. **Load reference** (e.g., ref_kai.png)
2. **Extract exact colors** (eyedropper)
3. **Match proportions** (measure head-to-body)
4. **Maintain outlines** (4-5px throughout)
5. **Verify consistency** (compare side-by-side)
**Frame-by-frame checklist:**
- [ ] Same dreadlock color?
- [ ] Same skin tone?
- [ ] Same clothing style?
- [ ] Same outline thickness?
- [ ] Same proportions?
- [ ] Chroma green background?
