Art style: Modern 2D Webcomic. A clean minimalist white space showing the present stickman standing tall and calm in the foreground, looking back over his shoulder at a much smaller, hunched, worried version of himself several steps behind, connected by faint dotted footprints. Wide composition with depth, the past self small and distant, the present self large and relaxed. Flat even lighting with a subtle progression from muted grey at the back to bright white at the front. The mood is reflective and hopeful. Palette of white, soft grey for the past self, and muted teal for the present. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Modern 2D Webcomic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Modern 2D Webcomic". 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 "Modern 2D Webcomic" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Stan: A simple, friendly stickman character with a round head, a plain black circular outline, and thin stick-figure limbs drawn with clean confident strokes. His face shows minimal but expressive features: two dot eyes and a small mouth that shifts between neutral, calm, and content. He has an approachable, relatable, everyman energy — not flashy, grounded, and quietly optimistic. He stands with relaxed, natural posture. Rendered as a clean minimalist figure on a bright neutral background with a soft even light and no clutter, giving a clear, uncluttered, instructional vibe suitable for a personal-finance explainer.
