Today I shot a Blanc cosplay set featuring her White Rabbit style from Goddess of Victory, and picked a few photos to share first. I really love the overall vibe of this photoset, and working with photographer Lu Mo was a great experience.
Regarding the hair and makeup this time, the white wig is very distinctive; we specially styled it into an asymmetrical updo with black ribbon bows, while the withered-branch antlers on top serve as the soul of the entire look. For makeup, the focus was placed on the eyes, using reddish tones to intensify the gaze, paired with a slightly glossy orange-pink lip color to convey both cool aloofness and playfulness before the camera. The outfit is a gorgeous robe with gold threads woven into a black base; the fabric is crisp, and the metallic sheen of the gold threads looks exceptionally high-end under studio lights. Inside is a paneled white inner layer and a black-and-gold corset, creating strong black, white, and gold contrasts.
During shooting, we captured three distinct moods. The first is a kneeling posture, biting a slender black prop with one hand pulling at the sleeve cuff and eyes looking toward the lens, exuding a lazy yet confident feel. The second shows both hands pulling open the robe to fully display the inner top and waistline, complemented by cloud and mist special effects across the chest for extra visual tension. Finally, the third photo is my favorite and the pose I most want to use for the cover: wearing black glossy red-soled high heels paired with a Black tights outfit, sitting on a white cylindrical pedestal with legs crossed. This pose highlights leg lines beautifully, and with the steam effect deliberately surrounding the legs, it instantly captures the hot-spring-themed atmosphere.
During studio photography, the environment is relatively simple, relying entirely on lighting to shape contours. Photographer Lu Mo handled light expertly, balancing material reflections on the black-and-gold outfit and facial shadows perfectly against a pure white backdrop. To make the smoke effects look natural during shooting, we repeatedly tested and caught the timing for snapshot moments.
Before creating this Studio portrait, what took the most time was preparing props and adjusting the hairstyle, as the original character contains many details that required accurate representation. Seeing the desired contrast in the final shots—the blend of the opulent black-and-gold robe with white hair and red eyes, alongside the visual impact of a Black tights outfit and red-soled high heels—I am very satisfied with the result. Today I selected these three photos to share, and as more images are edited, I will organize and post them gradually.
