[Lucia cosplay] Zenless Zone Zero's beauty of machinery and geometry, Convention photos record

Shooting this set of Convention photos was really satisfying. Lucia's costume has way too many details, and it took a lot of thought from getting it to wearing it neatly. The top is a blue-green strapless design, with edges piped in black leather-textured material. The golden circular dial accessory at the waist with dangling chains makes a textured metallic clinking sound when walking. The wig on top has a relatively complex styling; besides the blue-gray hair strands, animal ears with pink lining and dark small horns are fixed, and the makeup also emphasizes red eyeshadow to enhance the sharpness of the gaze. The long-handled staff prop in hand is truly heavy, and the golden reliefs and mechanical structures at the top are made very finely. To hold it vertically with one hand in front of the lens to keep it stable, my arm muscles were actually tensed the whole time. When shooting the first picture, I sat on a retro television model with crossed legs, the right leg wearing White stockings with black patterns, paired with black leg straps, trying to showcase the layering of the costume design. The blue-green cape behind me was blown up by the natural airflow on site, and coupled with the complex truss structure at the top of the convention hall and the blurred lighting, the overall atmosphere fit very well. The second picture version is the original photo later processed with AI post-processing; because the on-site lighting cast some shadows on the face, to ensure the overall visual appeal, I used AI to occlude the face and perform some stylized processing. Actually, the posture and lighting foundation of the original photo were already very good. Sitting on a black folding stool with the left hand naturally stretched outwards and the right foot bare touching the ground, the tailoring of the costume and the details of the props can be clearly seen. This time, not too much skin smoothing was done, trying to retain the true texture of the skin and the hard light effect on site. The environment at the convention site is actually quite noisy, with many passersby and other booths in the background. To completely isolate the subject in the frame, depth of field was specially utilized during shooting, extending the focal length and using a large aperture to blur the background. This shooting method heavily tests the coser's expression management and body control, especially maintaining the posture of holding the staff with one hand and crossing legs, which requires continuous full-body exertion. Overall, the mecha feel and wasteland style of this styling performed exceptionally well under the exhibition lights. Black leather, blue-green fabric, and golden metal accessories formed a great color contrast. The combination of White stockings and straps also added a lot of visual tension. Although the prop was heavy and the headpiece pinched my scalp painfully, seeing the effect of the finished photos made me feel that the preliminary preparation and live persistence were all worth it. If there's a chance in the future, I'd like to find a ruin or industrial-style real scene to shoot again; it should be able to unearth more of a story-telling feel for this costume.
