Art style: Pencil Sketch. A vertical split-screen collage divided into four equal rectangular panels. Each panel features one of the characters: the Maasai warrior, the Himba woman, the Dogon elder, and the Tuareg traveler. They are all looking toward the camera with friendly expressions. A bright yellow text box is centered over the intersection of the panels. The lighting is consistent and bright across all four segments. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Pencil Sketch" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Pencil Sketch". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Pencil Sketch" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Maasai Warrior: A tall, athletic African man in his early twenties with high cheekbones and a determined expression. He has short-cropped dark hair and wears traditional large beaded circular necklaces and beaded bracelets. His skin is a deep mahogany tone. He is captured in a vertical full-body portrait against the vast, golden grasslands of the East African savanna under a bright midday sun. The background features a few acacia trees and a clear blue sky. He exudes strength and agility, standing with an upright posture ready for movement. - Himba Woman: A young Himba woman with a serene and friendly face, characterized by her skin covered in a smooth, reddish-orange ochre and butterfat paste. Her hair is styled in intricate, thick braids also coated in the red earth mixture, ending in soft tufts. She wears layered necklaces of shells and carved beads. The portrait is a vertical close-up, focusing on her radiant, glowing complexion and bright eyes. The setting is a warm, sun-drenched village with thatched huts in the soft-focus background, emphasizing the golden hour light that makes her skin shimmer. - Dogon Elder: An elderly African man with a deeply lined, wise face and a short white beard. His eyes are bright and observant. He wears a simple indigo-dyed tunic. He is positioned in a vertical medium shot, standing on a high sandstone cliff overlooking the Bandiagara Escarpment. The background is a vast night sky filled with a brilliant density of stars and the Milky Way. His posture is dignified, holding a wooden staff, with the cool blue light of the moon illuminating one side of his face and silver hair. - Tuareg Traveler: A man in his thirties with striking dark eyes, his face partially veiled by a deep indigo-blue tagelmust. His visible skin on his forehead and around his eyes has a subtle, faint blue tint from the dye of his clothing. He is shown in a vertical medium shot against the rolling, orange sand dunes of the Sahara Desert. The wind is whipping his long, flowing blue robes. The lighting is from a low, orange sunset, creating long shadows and high contrast on the desert landscape.
