[Mi Fu cosplay] Arknights: Endfield, I'll still beat you sitting down

This photoset of Mi Fu was shot in the studio over half a day, and the entire shooting process can be said to be a dual test of physical strength and patience. There are truly many details in the props and clothing this time, especially the two golden spheres and black tactical accessories on the waist sides. Walking produces a slight clashing sound, and the hand-feel is very solid. To restore the geometric color-blocking splicing of white, blue, pink, and black on the clothes, as well as the three-dimensional armor with long tassels on the chest, I repeatedly adjusted it several times during the early fitting stage to ensure it could prop up the overall sci-fi feel in front of the lens. The wig was chosen with a pink gradient style, paired with red contact lenses and pointy ears, and the makeup on the brow center was also treated. Together, these details completely transformed the aura of the whole person.

What left the deepest impression on me are those two black-and-yellow heavy mechanical weapons. Although the weapons are made of lightweight materials, their volume is very large. When lifting them with both hands to strike poses, it is still necessary to master the center of gravity, otherwise, it's very easy to lose balance. When shooting single close-ups, I tried carrying the weapon on my shoulder, crossing it over my chest, and even holding it high with one hand. Combined with high-angle and low-angle perspectives, the resulting effect has great tension. There are also a few photos of squatting and sitting postures where I specifically requested to showcase the leg lines. The dark green over-the-knee socks paired with thick-soled tactical boots formed a sharp visual contrast with the bright pink of the upper body.

The phrase in the post, "Sitting down, I'll still win against you," was actually something I casually said while trying to find the vibe during a break in the shooting. My gaze happened to sweep across the lens at that moment, so I naturally made that leg-raising motion. Posing while sitting is actually no easier than standing, especially having to balance the positions of the armor, tail, and various pendants while keeping the upper body upright, with the waist and abdomen constantly exerting secret force. To capture that casual and indifferent vibe, I put away my usual photo-taking habits, tried my best to control my facial expressions, made my gaze aggressive, slightly tucked my chin, and presented a looking-down perspective.

The advantage of studio photography is that the lighting ratio can be completely controlled by yourself. This time the main light was hit very cleanly, which just happened to highlight the luster of the jacket fabric and the texture of the metal accessories. The color saturation of this outfit's color scheme is very high. The color clashes of pink, blue, and green plus the black and white base color can easily look cluttered if the lighting is not handled cleanly. Fortunately, the final photos restored my expectations for this Mi Fu styling in my heart. From makeup finalization to prop assembly, and every single action on-site, everything was polished according to the high standards of 2D portrait photography. I hope this can provide some shooting and reference perspectives for friends who like this outfit.
