Follow [Legendary bespoke composition](./art-direction.md#legendary-bespoke-composition). Keep the complete base illustration separate from an optional adapted foreground element. Retain each foreground's authored silhouette/alpha and editable source; for generated or edited donors, also retain the exact prompt, native output, recorded fit/placement, and hashes. The foreground may intentionally differ from the art behind the backing. Record that difference instead of requiring source-RGB identity for the adapted region.
Place all fitted components on the same 2000 × 2800 canvas with explicit transforms. The usual order is base illustration → selected frame/backing overlay → illustrated foreground → deterministic lettering. Record any template-specific change in order. Use the same source, transform, alpha convention, and resampling for the face and associated finish data.
Before drawing masks, record a depth plan for the candidate: background environment, focal subject, frame/backing, selected foreground exception, and lettering. The usual full-canvas order is base illustration → selected frame/backing → selected illustrated foreground → deterministic lettering. A template may use another documented order, but it must preserve the scene's spatial relationships. Reject a foreground treatment that makes a background element appear to pass in front of the focal subject.
Choose a silhouette that preserves the complete intended form, internal leading, and a convincing visible connection to the source scene. Review color-assisted selections and traced contours for holes, clipped seams, detached folds, fringes, and artificial straight edges. A contour can be geometrically valid while the overlap still looks pasted on. Redesign the foreground or backing where needed, and inspect the final composed join at enlarged, standard, and thumbnail sizes.
Prototype the Normal composition with the approved illustration and real text before creating other printing faces or material maps. Preserve each rejected candidate as a review revision when comparison remains useful. After explicit Normal-layout approval, derive the other printings and all affected masks once from the selected sources and geometry.
Validate actual unclipped glyph bounds and require no foreground/lettering intersection. For a backed layout, verify glyphs remain on the intended legible backing field after its shapes are adjusted. Record visual assessment separately from numerical connectivity or source-preservation checks. During prototyping, make only specifically requested provisional previews; final printings and masks follow approval of the selected illustration and adapted foreground.
Choose backing placement from the scene's negative space and measured text needs. Legendary backings may be asymmetric or subject-specific. Size them to the approved text, reference, and breathing room; when an empty region appears accidental, test a smaller or differently placed backing before adding decorative content. Keep the card frame/backing visually primary and limit illustrated foreground restoration to the intended exception.
Choose a foreground silhouette that preserves the complete logical form, internal leading, and a convincing visible connection to the source scene. Follow material and garment seams instead of selecting by color alone. Include connected lining, cuffs, and folds when they form one object; exclude detached shards, lower robe panels, background posts, or other unrelated components. Review color-assisted selections and traced contours for holes, clipped seams, fringes, and artificial straight edges. A contour can be numerically valid while the overlap still looks pasted on.
Place all fitted components on the same 2000 × 2800 canvas with explicit transforms and a common alpha convention. Render masks and edges at sufficient resolution, composite color with premultiplied alpha, and downsample without transparent-RGB halos. Inspect the complete form and its join at enlarged, standard, and thumbnail sizes.
Validate actual unclipped glyph bounds and require no foreground/lettering intersection. For a backed layout, verify every glyph remains on the intended opaque field after its shape changes. For irregular or asymmetric layouts, define the usable text band after foreground obstructions. Record foreground component bounds, text clearance, source hashes, and visual assessment separately from numerical connectivity checks.
Select components explicitly per printing. A backing-specific adaptation appears in Normal and Borderless. Textless uses the full illustration plus its selected outer frame; Boundless uses the full illustration alone. Omit the backing-specific foreground from those two printings to avoid duplicating or changing the underlying subject unexpectedly. Record a revised full-bleed artwork variant if an adaptation is intended for all printings.

Every template needs approved minimum font sizes and maximum line counts, established at actual application display sizes. Word count is an editorial guide, not a fit check. Long names and wide glyphs can overflow even with few words.
Choose verse line breaks by semantic phrasing before reducing the font. Keep dependent phrases together where the available region permits; avoid line endings that create false pauses after incomplete constructions. Then fit the largest approved size with natural tracking. For an asymmetric Legendary layout, measure the actual foreground obstruction and center the union of verse ink within the remaining usable band above the fixed reference region.
Validate the **unclipped rendered glyph bounds** against each text region and its padding. Checking only the text object's box can miss clipping. Reject missing fonts, missing glyphs, overflow, or insufficient line capacity; do not silently substitute fonts, crop the text, or shrink it below the minimum. Use a reviewed alternate layout or revise the content.
Text is rendered anew when card content changes, but its coordinates do not change randomly. Once approved, the frame/backing decoration is reused.

1. Render the template with plain fills and a typography stress set. Establish acceptable proportions, font sizes, and overlap.
2. Prototype the illustration using the compact art brief and selected layout guide. Fit/review it and obtain explicit artwork approval before proceeding to assembly.
3. Add restrained Common frame decoration only if plain vector treatment is insufficient.
4. Assemble all four printings with the shared `raw-ridges-v1` recipe for new stained-glass art, resolving each printing’s actual visible components. Keep any explicitly requested alternative as a separate comparison.
5. Run structural checks and review seams and text at target sizes.
6. Review with the approved harness finish response and compare against the existing reference fixture.
7. Freeze the approved template/assets and reuse them for subsequent Commons.
3. For a bespoke Legendary, record the depth plan and build a Normal-only composition with real text. Review backing placement, complete foreground form, semantic line breaks, joins, and card-size hierarchy. Obtain explicit Normal-layout approval before generating the remaining printings or masks.
4. Add restrained tier decoration only when plain vector treatment is insufficient; first reduce or reshape accidental empty backing areas.

7. Review with the approved harness finish response and compare against the existing reference fixture.
8. Freeze the approved template/assets. Reuse tier templates where required; preserve bespoke Legendary templates with their selected card revision.
Keep the current harness reference fixtures available for comparison. This proof should establish new production assets without silently replacing the approved material baseline.
