# Baby Boot Camp — Artist Image Generation Rules
2+
3+
Status: active production rules for Baby Boot Camp artwork
4+
5+
This project inherits the reusable transparent-PNG production standard from Personal Forge and adds Baby Boot Camp-specific locks.
6+
7+
## Project visual lock
8+
9+
- Warm near-white cream page system
10+
- Dark olive identifiers and icon circles
11+
- Muted gold rules and accents
12+
- Warm, homey children’s-book illustration quality
13+
- Drill Sergeant Teddy must remain recognizably the protected Baby Boot Camp mascot identity
14+
- No camouflage page backgrounds, weapons, tactical gear, or cold military treatment
15+
- Raster art is for non-reproducible pictorial elements; tables, panel fills, borders, text, and most structural headers should remain CSS/InDesign when practical
16+
17+
## Baby’s First Foods production rule
18+
19+
The approved Baby’s First Foods composition is the source of truth. Production art replaces only artwork that is actually present in that approved design. Do not invent filler illustrations.
20+
21+
Every raster element needed for production must be redrawn as an independent, maximum-quality transparent PNG rather than cut from the concept.
22+
23+
### Required behavior
24+
25+
- One final production asset per render
26+
- Perfect true-alpha transparency
27+
- No page background
28+
- No checkerboard baked into the image
29+
- No white/cream matte halo
30+
- No colored bottom strip used as a shadow
31+
- No fake floor or support plane
32+
- No sticker/die-cut outline unless specifically requested
33+
- No composite production sheets
34+
- Preserve enough transparent padding for InDesign positioning
35+
36+
## Header/category artwork
37+
38+
Table/header bars are intended for CSS/InDesign. Generate only the small pictorial icon that belongs beside the text unless explicitly instructed otherwise.
39+
40+
Current examples include:
41+
- Fruits
42+
- Vegetables
43+
- Protein
44+
- Grains / Starches
45+
- Dairy
46+
- Beans, Lentils & Nuts / Seeds
47+
- Meat, Egg & Seafood
48+
- Herbs, Spices & Cooking Fats
49+
- Common Allergens
50+
- Notes
51+
52+
Each icon must be independent and readable at small size.
53+
54+
## Legend artwork
55+
56+
The Baby’s First Foods legend must distinguish each state instantly.
57+
58+
### Smear — touch
59+
60+
Primary cue: baby finger/hand touching or smearing puree.
61+
62+
Rules:
63+
- no unexplained palm dot or center mark;
64+
- no page-colored patch beneath the hand;
65+
- hand + food interaction is the meaning.
66+
67+
### Taste — lips/mouth
68+
69+
Primary cue: **isolated lips/mouth plus a small spoon of puree approaching the lips**.
70+
71+
Hard isolation rule:
72+
- lips only as the human feature;
73+
- mouth opening, teeth, or tongue may show when useful;
74+
- NO cheeks;
75+
- NO chin;
76+
- NO jaw;
77+
- NO surrounding skin;
78+
- NO lower-face wedge;
79+
- NO skin-colored shape beneath the lips;
80+
- NO underpainting;
81+
- NO skin shadow bridge between lips, spoon, plaque, jar, or fruit;
82+
- NO glow base;
83+
- NO bowl as the primary cue.
84+
85+
Outside the lips, pixels must go directly to true transparent alpha.
86+
87+
This rule exists because image generation repeatedly tried to interpret “mouth” as a partial face and invented a beige/skin support plane. That output is rejected even if the rest of the illustration is attractive.
88+
89+
### Eat — swallowed some
90+
91+
Primary cue: bowl/food + spoon, clearly indicating actual eating rather than only sampling.
92+
93+
Taste and Eat must not look interchangeable at thumbnail size.
94+
95+
## Nutrition legend badges
96+
97+
The approved concept used very dark badges, but production versions may be more playful and colorful while staying coherent with the Baby Boot Camp palette.
98+
99+
Examples:
100+
- Fe — iron
101+
- Zn — zinc
102+
- Ω-3 — omega-3
103+
- A — major allergen
104+
105+
Keep them compact, high-contrast, and clearly readable at the actual chart size.
106+
107+
## No-sticker-outline rule
108+
109+
Do not interpret “isolated,” “standalone,” “badge,” or “sticker-style” as permission to add a white or cream outer contour.
110+
111+
Production isolation must be achieved by true alpha transparency. Unless specifically requested, reject:
112+
- white die-cut border;
113+
- cream outer contour;
114+
- opaque halo;
115+
- outer glow used as separation;
116+
- page-colored matte edge.
117+
118+
## Reference-image doctrine
119+
120+
When using the approved concept or earlier generated art:
121+
- reproduce the approved idea and proportions;
122+
- improve print detail and consistency;
123+
- keep the project style and mascot identity;
124+
- do not copy defects from the source;
125+
- never preserve accidental backgrounds or support shapes simply because they appear in a reference image.
126+
127+
## Prompt tail to append to production generations
128+
129+
> Single standalone Baby Boot Camp production asset. True RGBA transparent alpha background. Object edges transition directly to transparency. No white or cream sticker border, no outer contour, no halo, no page-colored matte, no floor, no support plane, no colored background patch, no fake shadow oval, no bottom strip, no glow bed, and no checkerboard painted into the image. One asset only. Do not invent extra decorative objects not present in the approved design.
130+
131+
For Taste/lips assets append:
132+
133+
> Lips are an isolated floating graphic feature only. No cheeks, chin, jaw, face fragment, skin patch, lower-face wedge, skin-colored support shape, underpainting, glow base, or shadow bridge. Transparent alpha begins immediately outside the lips.
134+
135+
## QA gate
136+
137+
Before calling an asset finished:
138+
139+
- [ ] It corresponds to an actual approved-design need
140+
- [ ] One asset only
141+
- [ ] True transparent alpha
142+
- [ ] No white/cream outline unless explicitly requested
143+
- [ ] No fake support plane or background color
144+
- [ ] No fake shadow strip/oval
145+
- [ ] No halo/matte fringe
146+
- [ ] No checkerboard baked into pixels
147+
- [ ] No invented filler artwork
148+
- [ ] Clear meaning at chart size
149+
- [ ] Correct Baby Boot Camp visual language
150+
- [ ] Independent enough to move/remove/reposition in InDesign
151+
152+
## Failure escalation rule
153+
154+
If an artifact repeats, stop rubber-stamping the same design. Identify what the generation model is inferring incorrectly, add a specific negative constraint, and regenerate fresh artwork. Repeated defects are prompt-system failures, not details to tolerate.
