This shoot selected several scenes with vastly different styles, from scaffolding under construction to a rainy, water-logged rooftop, and then to a white building with circular arched windows, perfectly matching Lappland's cold yet casual temperament. The costume consists of a customized black leather jacket and shorts; the ribbon of the tie and the details at the cuffs all restored the original setting. The silver-gray wig underwent layered trimming, and the fur volume of the beast ears and tail was specially thickened, allowing the tail's curvature to extend naturally during dynamic poses. The prop swords were manually polished; the semi-circular handguards and the metallic texture of the blades carry a lot of weight under the overcast lighting. The shoot specifically chose a gray and white-toned sky, which, paired with a cool filter, made the overall atmosphere closer to that 'not quite fitting in' detachment found in the operator's archive files. The frame stepping on the water surface was an unexpected harvest—the rain had just stopped, and the reflection in the puddle happened to mirror the complete posture, with post-processing only slightly adjusting the contrast. The rooftop set utilized a large aperture to blur the distant city skyline into a hazy silhouette, making the character main subject stand out much more. As an old player of Arknights, being able to present this character in my own way and being personally involved in everything from costume pattern-making to prop details made the process itself highly fulfilling.
