Visited the Hangzhou pop-up as default-skin Amiya, and organized the photos and experience from this Arknights Amiya cosplay. The focus of this styling was mainly on the rabbit ears and eye expressions. Iron wires were used inside the rabbit ears for support, and the curvature was adjusted multiple times to make them look more natural. The eye makeup was paired with blue contact lenses, with an emphasis on the lower eyeshadow to make the gaze match the character design better. For the outfit, the bright blue lining of the coat and the folds of the necktie easily absorbed light, so the reflector position was specifically adjusted when shooting in front of the backdrop to ensure color saturation. When pairing with Black stockings, I repeatedly adjusted the standing angles for better visual proportions, highlighting the leg lines while avoiding wide-angle lens distortion during the shoot. The pose holding the card in photo 3 was achieved after several test shots in order to capture the highlights in both the accessories and eyes. The pop-up venue was designed primarily in blue and white with great depth, resembling a courtyard beneath a starry sky. There were star-folding and wish-writing activities on-site, offering great interactivity; seeing wishes written by so many players expressing their love for the character was truly heartwarming. On the merchandise side, it was a pity that the default Shanshan Bunny and Dreamer Bunny plushies I wanted were sold out again. Although slightly disappointed, I still had a great haul—buying acrylic standees, badges, and large-box plushies. The physical quality of the merchandise is superb, just like the loot shown in photo 6. The lighting in the mall was quite complex with overlapping warm and cool tones, but adjusting the white balance preserved the deep azure of the background while making the skin tone appear more luminous. The earlier full-body shots emphasized the texture of the Black stockings and leg lines through composition and lighting, while the close-up in photo 3 focused on facial details. The overall layout flow of the Hangzhou pop-up was well planned, and the gift box design was thoughtful. Documenting this offline experience—the whole vibe was truly fantastic.
