This time I'm portraying Tlipoca from Yog-Sothoth's Yard, often referred to by everyone as the Little Reaper. Actually, while preparing this photo set, to recreate her iconic drill-curl hairstyle, I put a lot of thought into styling and setting this white wig. The exaggerated drill curls on both sides have a very strong three-dimensional sense, requiring repeated treatment with hairspray and a curling iron, and it really has some weight when worn on the head.

In terms of makeup, to highlight the character's traits, I wore red circle lenses and intentionally dotted a red tear mole beneath the corner of one eye. The base makeup was kept quite fair and clean; matched with the blended eye makeup, it creates a bit of a yandere combined with the inorganic texture of an exquisite doll.

The layering of this outfit is extremely rich. The overall dress is in a black-and-white primary color scheme, with a shawl-style cropped outer jacket, and a bow at the neckline featuring black-and-gray stripes spliced with a red ribbon. The skirt hem reveals a large amount of pink hidden-pattern lace and layered ruffles. The styling detail that satisfies me the most is the Asymmetrical stockings design. One side is pure white over-the-knee socks, while the other side is black over-the-knee socks, and a garter ring with white lace and a black bow is added at the thigh. This collision of black and white actually tests leg shape quite a bit; I purposely adjusted the height of the socks and the position of the leg ring to concentrate the visual center of gravity more, making it fit the Gothic Lolita styling style even better.

The shooting location was chosen as a retro dark-style studio: a large expanse of red velvet curtains, glittering retro candleholders, black-background bedsheets with large red flower rose patterns, and even white skull models placed in the background—these props instantly maxed out that luxurious yet slightly dark gothic atmosphere.

During the shoot, to fit the Little Reaper persona, I tried to keep my expression aloof. In terms of action, I didn't do overly exaggerated poses, mainly sitting on the bed, gently touching my lips with my fingers, or crossing my hands with my head slightly tilted, all wanting to present the state of an exquisite doll. The photography lighting was also deliberately tilted toward warm tones, casting reflections on the skin and gold-and-silver props, while moderately blurring the background to set off the overall gorgeousness. I've invested a lot from makeup and styling to the set arrangement, and I hope to present the character's unique temperament to everyone.
