BALD
TRUMP.
A dignified studio portrait rendered like a field manual. Bald Trump, to spec.

The Principle
No hair, no frills. The joke is handled like evidence: neutral backdrop, three‑quarter pose, eyes on the lens, dome catching a calm studio key light. No combs, no gusts, no correction pass, absence is the subject. The grid measures planes of face and tie like a machine part. Humor arrives from the mismatch: ceremonial seriousness applied to an obviously bald statesman. The specification is the gag.

FAQ
Is this political?
No. It's a formal study of absence dressed like a state portrait. The laugh is in the lab‑coat tone.
Why bald?
Because removing the hair removes the noise. The silhouette is cleaner; the punchline is cleaner.
Will the character vary?
No. Same subject, same lighting family, same tie, same lens discipline, consistency is the bit.
Where do I get TRUMLD?
The acquisition rail opens soon; specification precedes availability.
Handling Notes
Visual system follows field‑manual decorum: stencilled olive‑drab panels, strap bands as dividers, navy and steel greys for the working surface, and a single red stamp for emphasis. Hairline rules map the portrait like a diagram.
Soft drop shadows float the plates; gentle gradients echo studio falloff. Keep margins tight, type stately, and wit dry.
