Tools/hero_iterate.sh runs the whole chain - chmod the Blender files, build, import, render, judge, plate - and fails loudly at each step with its log under /tmp/gigline. Tools/hero_compare.py builds the side-by-side plate (reference | rendered, one height, labelled); two are committed for review. This pass: the stone is warmer in Blender (0.66/0.60/0.48 against the near-white blockout) and the banners are 1.35 x 6.2 m hung from 7.2 m, matching the reference proportion instead of the 1.55 x 5.4 that sat too low and too fat. Iteration 1 judge verdict, confidence 0.9: lacks warm sandstone, lacks fluted column detail, banners wrong, no doorways, no inscription or medallions. Checked against the plate, two of those are wrong (120 flute strips exist and cast shadows; three 1.2 m deep doorways with steps exist and read black) and three are real. The split is recorded in TODO.md with the next action for each - the important one being that the stone colour must change in the UE material (ue_hero_facade_import.py), not in the Blender material, which the render does not use.

Rules
- Every
.blendsaves with a real-world metric scene scale. No exceptions; scale drift is the main source of import defects. - Named export presets only. Record the preset name and its settings next to the asset that used it.
- Textures enter as a documented source (author, licence, source URL) and are listed in ../THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
- Reference photography is never committed and never shipped. It is evidence, not content. Licensing is not a gate for local private development, but anything that would derive from a reference in a shipped asset needs a licensing decision before release.
.blendfiles are LFS-tracked and lockable; pull before editing.
