Created temp/test3-prompt-package/ folder with prompt and image instructions
for Trinity Star Trek × Doctor Who artwork Test 3.

FOLDER CONTENTS:
- PROMPT.md: Complete 300-line generation prompt
- README.md: How to use the package

'A picture is worth 1000 words' - reference images provide precision where
text alone struggles. This package includes:

3. ref3-hammer-scale.jpg (Mjolnir life-size - weapon scale reference)
4. ref4-fierce-expression.jpg (warrior portrait - expression reference)
5. ref5-time-vortex.jpg (TARDIS purple vortex - energy effects reference)

USER WORKFLOW:
1. Save the 5 displayed reference images to this folder
2. Upload all 5 images + PROMPT.md content to Gemini
3. Generate

This is a TEMPORARY working folder for the experiment. Once Test 3 is
complete and results documented, this can be archived or deleted.
