Original diagram & reconstruction provenance
Mature Ego is manually traced from the left silhouette in this diagram. The existing source-pass.js reconstruction of the video’s 74.5-second pose was consulted for proportions; these are different source poses. The first four stages are newly authored proposals. No generated concept boards were used.
