🎯 USAGE

Za AI generacijo Z konsistentnostjo:

1. Vključi reference sliko v prompt kot context
2. Uporabi prompt: "Same character as reference, [action/pose], maintain exact visual consistency"
3. Ohrani stil (Style A ali B)

Primer prompt:

Character from reference image (Kai), [walking animation frame 1], 
same green hair, same backpack, same outfit, maintain Style A 
with bold black outlines and flat colors, isolated white background

📊 KONSISTENTNOST RULES

Kar MORA ostati isto:

• ✅ Barva kože/lase

🔄 WORKFLOW

1. Nova animacija/poza:

• Uporabi ustrezno master reference (Style A ali B)
• Add to prompt: "maintain consistency with reference"
• Generate

2. Preverjanje konsistentnosti:

• Vizualno primerjaj z master reference
• Check: barve, proporci, stil
• Re-generate če ni dovolj konsistentno

3. Batch generation:

• Uporabi isto reference sliko za vse animacije 1 karakterja
• = Garantirana konsistentnost celotnega seta
