# Corrected sawn-off pair, original light illustration style

Date: 2026-09-06.

Active asset: `26.png`. Identical versioned copy: `26-dual-fixed-v3.png`.
Original incorrect pair preserved in `dual-set/26.png`. Other original pairs (22, 28, 32) restored unchanged. The 3D experiments are retained in `dual-volume-v2/` and are not active.

Mode: built-in `image_gen.imagegen`, reference-image editing.
Generated original: `C:/Users/pidlu/.codex/generated_images/019f3828-fcdf-7551-b58d-e67018bc7c34/exec-a914c9fa-ea87-4905-9958-c10561c9ee6a.png`.

Inputs: `dual-volume-v2/26.png` for corrected two-gun geometry; `dual-set/26.png` for the original silver-gray illustration style.

The user previously authorized programmatic background extraction. `tmp/prepare-hud-cutout.ps1` removed the generated checkerboard and the enclosed background holes at seeds [410,790,365,850,845,786,892,850]. The drawing itself was not transformed programmatically. The output is 1254 x 1254 RGBA; alpha bounds and hull in `hud.html` were updated for correct local-file sizing. Existing 96px visible icon size and zero CSS rotation were retained.

## Final prompt

```text
Use case: style-transfer.
Image 1 is the EDIT TARGET. Keep its exact corrected anatomy: exactly TWO separate complete sawn-off shotguns, two clear separate receivers and TWO normal short curved grips, crossing ONLY at their barrels. Preserve every silhouette, angle, crossing order, trigger guard position and the clear gap between the lower receiver/grip assemblies. The lower-right grip must stay a single clean correctly oriented grip with no extra partial handle behind it.
Image 2 is ONLY the DRAWING STYLE reference. Do NOT copy its malformed overlapping grip/receiver anatomy.
Redraw image 1 in the restrained light silver-white and gray game HUD illustration style of image 2. Clean medium-gray outlines, simple broad gray shading and white highlight strips, smooth readable shapes. Return to a stylized graphic illustration, NOT a shiny 3D render, NOT photorealism: remove chrome reflections, fine surface texture, realistic lighting and black occlusion. Use the softer original light gray palette and moderately darker gray grip panels. Keep all parts clearly readable in a 96px icon. No additional details or new design features.
Preserve the exact TWO-gun X composition and geometry from image 1. Each shotgun must connect its own upper barrel pair continuously to its own lower receiver and grip. No fused center, no third grip, no shared gun parts. Square 1:1 canvas, transparent PNG alpha background, clear margins, all weapon tips visible, no clipping. True transparency in background and trigger guard holes; no painted checkerboard, floor shadow, text, logos, hands or other objects.
