semi-realistic anime-painterly character design, cinematic lighting. A French nobleman in his late 20s, light ash-blond hair swept back, pale sharp features, cold composed expression, light grey-blue eyes. Wearing a formal pale grey long military coat with silver buttons over a crisp white cravat, standing rigid and composed. Contrasted against a dark-haired rival — this character reads as cool, controlled, aristocratic, opposite in coloring and temperament. Snowy dusk lighting, cold blue-toned atmosphere with distant warm orange horizon glow, painterly detail, thick clean linework. --ar 16:9 --niji 6
