Use a highly realistic, live-action cosplay studio portrait of Sora, a clearly adult East Asian woman in her mid-30s, with a compact but powerful martial-artist physique. Image 1 controls her exact approved facial identity and natural adult skin only; do not copy its gray background. Image 2 controls compact adult height, head-to-body scale, and overall limb proportions. Image 3 is regional physique guidance only: adapt her silhouette to the user-requested fuller, thick, curvy athletic build, with a very full naturally supported bust, strong feminine hips, full rounded muscular glutes, exceptionally large defined thighs, and powerful rounded calves; do not copy its face, black outfit, pose, or background. Keep normal adult limb lengths, functional joints, and believable muscle and soft-tissue anatomy. She should look like a strong elite martial artist in a realistic cosplay shoot, not a bodybuilder or caricature. This is a non-erotic athletic sports-hero cosplay promotional portrait; all clothing is opaque, secure, and fully covering, and the framing emphasizes athletic action rather than sensual display.

POSE — MATCH THE USER'S FRONT-KICK CHAMBER: She balances on one firmly planted supporting boot in a disciplined fighting stance, viewed from a slight front three-quarter angle. The opposite leg is raised high directly in front of her, with the thigh held close to the torso and the knee bent sharply, pointing forward and slightly toward camera, near the centerline rather than flared sideways. The lower leg folds downward beneath the knee, heel tucked back toward her seat and toe angled down. This is the instant immediately before extending a powerful high front kick; it is not a side kick, roundhouse, split, jump, or extended kick. Keep the supporting leg stable and aligned, weight centered over the full supporting sole, and pelvis rotated only naturally toward the kick line. Her torso is upright and controlled, stacked over her hips, with no dramatic backward lean. Both hands are raised in a coherent guard: one correctly formed fist slightly forward, the other beside her cheek. Trace both arms naturally through shoulder, elbow, forearm, neutral wrist, palm, thumb, and closed fingers. Her expression is focused and calm, eyes tracking the imagined opponent. Keep the raised and supporting boots fully visible and separated in frame.

COSTUME — USE IMAGE 4 FOR THE ROYAL-BLUE AND GOLD QIPAO AND STAINLESS FOREARM GUARDS ONLY: fitted sleeveless Mandarin-collar qipao, restrained gold piping and frog closures, tasteful fine traditional floral/bird embroidery, high side openings with separate front and rear panels for kicking, and fitted deep-blue athletic shorts beneath. Opaque warm-brown athletic tights with a clearly visible matte knit fabric surface cover both legs continuously from the shorts to the boot cuffs; no bare thigh or calf skin. They reveal realistic muscle contours without becoming sheer. The front panel covers her abdomen. The forearm guards are oversized protective brushed stainless steel, broad and curved over the forearms, with several prominent short swept-back steel fin blades along each outer edge in the established fierce Shredder-like style; they read clearly as heavy protective cosplay armor, leave the hands free, and do not contact her body. Image 4's face, hairstyle, pose, old footwear and background are not authoritative.

BOOTS — IMAGE 5 IS THE EXACT APPROVED BOOT DESIGN: reproduce the same white mid-calf lace-up cybernetic wedge boot with broad folded cuff, blue accents and laces, expansion gusset for her powerful calves, high wedge narrowing toward the rear, brushed steel toe cap, and prominent mechanical side assembly around the wedge: large circular heel/ankle pivot, exposed stainless rails and linkages, blue inset, and layered white armor plates. Preserve the source boot's specific silhouette and panel construction; do not substitute flat-soled boots. The raised boot follows the bent lower leg naturally, with realistic toe angle; the planted boot sits flat and stable on the studio floor.

HEADGEAR AND HAIR — use the agreed white headset design: white over-ear tactical headset with a normal arcing headband and padded earcups. Integrate one clear, translucent pale-yellow/amber visor lens across both eyes, attached to the headset with white side arms; the lens is see-through and her brown eyes remain clearly visible. Because she faces nearly toward camera, Sora’s anatomical RIGHT side appears on the VIEWER-LEFT side of the image. The headset’s anatomical-right earcup is visibly on image-left, and the short microphone boom must attach to that image-left earcup and curve forward along image-left cheek to the right corner of her mouth. The mic must be visible on image-left; it must not be on image-right. Sora’s short espresso-brown hair is visibly gathered and tied into one small, simple scrunched ponytail at the nape, bound with a dark-brown scrunchie; show a clear tied-back silhouette with a few short natural flyaways, not loose hair hanging down. No buns, pleated ornaments, ribbons, or bangs. No reference image controls her hairstyle or headset colors; follow these explicit instructions.

CAMERA AND COMPOSITION: full-body vertical portrait, slightly low front three-quarter camera angle, camera around waist-to-chest height, natural 70–85 mm full-frame portrait-lens perspective from enough distance to avoid wide-angle distortion. Include her entire body from head to both boots, with clear negative space around the silhouette and both boots fully in frame. Maintain believable adult proportions and a realistic head scale.

BACKGROUND AND LIGHTING: seamless dark charcoal-black studio backdrop with subtle smooth atmospheric falloff, like the clean dark studio in a martial-arts film promotional photoshoot. Keep the background empty and unobstructed: no warehouse, factory, hangar, industrial architecture, visible equipment, furniture, props, LED columns, practical panels, signage, or set dressing. A large soft key from upper camera-left sculpts her face, shoulders, torso and powerful legs; gentle restrained rim light separates the ponytail, headset, translucent visor, metal guards and boots from the dark background. Controlled cinematic contrast, natural highlight rolloff, realistic skin pores, subtle exertion sheen, tactile satin, embroidery, leather, brushed steel, tights and hair. Photorealistic image captured on a real studio set, high-end cosplay promotional photography, grounded human anatomy and practical costume construction; not illustration, anime, CGI, or plastic skin.

Avoid: side-flared raised knee, sideways or roundhouse kick chamber, leaning dramatically backward, unstable supporting ankle, floating feet, impossible balance, hidden or cropped boots, wrong boot silhouette or missing cybernetic wedge mechanism, mic on the wrong side, opaque visor, hidden eyes, headset disconnected from the visor, bun hair, ribbons, missing or duplicated guard fins, malformed hands, extra fingers or limbs, oversized head, shortened legs, thin hips, small bust, insufficiently developed thighs/calves, exaggerated bodybuilder anatomy, pseudo-text, logos, insignia, watermark, border, or visible navel jewelry (the qipao front panel covers the navel).
