Call me the respected Officer Cissia! This patrol commission from Zenless Zone Zero finally officially delivers its results today. This shoot required a long preparation period, from costume fabric selection and prop polishing to final makeup—hoping every step faithfully recreates the cool sharpness in my heart. Although this set of equipment is indeed quite heavy to wear, the moment fight spirit reignites before the camera, everything becomes worth it.
Let me first talk about the styling core of this shoot. Since the hairstyle is a bright yellow high ponytail, that iconic ahoge on top was intentionally preserved, embellished with black bows and plush balls. For makeup, we tried pink eyeshadow and lipstick that echo the outfit, ensuring the look aligns with the \"officer\" persona's capable, sharp setting while carrying an innate playful girliness. The color palette of the costume is very bold: a bright pink halter top paired with white detached flared sleeves, maxed out with black cuffs and metal buckle details. The lower body features a black multi-tiered ruffled skirt, with a black leather cinched waist design and a golden star-shaped buckle strap that brightens the ensemble wonderfully.
Special praise goes to the leg accessories and footwear: Black stockings over knees paired with black leather straps with metal buckles, along with thick-soled black biker boots, extending leg lines while adding to the overall weight and presence. Speaking of presence, I must mention the huge white tube tail on the back—its grid-pattern finish and plush pom-pom at the tip look soft and cute, but actually require great back balance when wearing it.
The biggest challenge was undoubtedly the long polearm weapon in hand. It stands a good head taller than me, with a long black shaft featuring gold branching ornaments and pink blade-like attachments that pack immense visual impact. Swinging it around during the Studio shoot was a real workout, especially when taking that shot in Photo 3 where I kneel on one knee and hold the weapon horizontally; I had to manage dropping my center of gravity, exerting arm strength, and keeping intensity in my gaze all at once, taking several takes before feeling satisfied.
For lighting and shadow, we selected a gradient background transitioning from greyish-purple to magenta. This fusion of cool and warm tones is exquisite, making the blonde hair and vibrant pink-black color-blocked outfit pop instantly. Being a Studio shoot, light fell evenly across the costume's patent leather, metal buckles, and plastic tube tail, rendering full texture. Although these are sample photos, one can already feel the sense of power this character reinvents in me.
In daily life, whether packing props or tweaking details, patience is heavily tested, but as long as cool moments can be captured, all these efforts are completely worth it. Hope my sharing lets you feel that tense yet captivating 2D atmosphere of walking the streets of Zenless Zone Zero.
