Use the reference image with absolute priority. Preserve the exact character's identity, including her face, facial proportions, eyes, hairstyle, hair color, skin tone, body proportions, signature accessories, and overall appearance. Keep the original color palette and motifs from the reference character while redesigning only the outfit, pose, environment, and lighting.
OUTFIT — Transform the original costume into a premium fantasy café maid uniform inspired by the reference image. The dress features a fitted bodice with a deep sweetheart neckline that tastefully accentuates the cleavage, soft gathered bust detailing, delicate white frills along the neckline and sleeves, a classic white maid apron, a short layered skirt, elegant detached garter straps, and thigh-high stockings. The fabric appears refined and luxurious with gentle folds and subtle highlights while preserving the original character's color scheme and accessories.
POSE & EXPRESSION — Standing behind the café counter in a relaxed, slightly shy pose inspired by the reference. One hand gently lifts the edge of her skirt just enough to create a playful maid gesture, while the other hand forms a small finger-heart beside her face. She looks directly toward the viewer with a soft, slightly embarrassed smile, rosy cheeks, sparkling eyes, and a warm, affectionate expression that feels sweet and inviting.
COMPOSITION — A vertical portrait framed from the head to the upper thighs. The character occupies most of the frame, with the face and upper body naturally becoming the focal point while still showcasing the complete maid outfit and pose.
BACKGROUND — A cozy café bar filled with neatly arranged bottles, warm wooden shelves, soft amber lighting, and a welcoming evening atmosphere. The environment feels lively and lived-in, complementing the maid theme without distracting from the character.
LIGHTING — Warm indoor lighting with gentle cinematic rim light that softly outlines the hair and shoulders, creating a cozy café ambiance with subtle reflections on the polished wooden counter.
SKIN RENDERING — Luminous skin with soft glossy highlights, gentle blush across the cheeks, delicate body contour shading, and a healthy natural glow.
QUALITY — Premium Japanese visual novel illustration, painterly anime artwork, cinematic lighting, expressive storytelling, richly detailed environment, polished lineart, refined color harmony, character-focused composition.
