Scene: a professional tattoo studio, intimate and dimly lit. The subject — a tattoo artist mid-session — leans forward over a client's forearm resting on a padded armrest. The subject holds a professional rotary tattoo machine in their dominant hand: grip is firm but relaxed, all FIVE fingers visible and anatomically correct — natural knuckle ridges, thumb with exactly two joints, index finger guiding along the machine barrel, fingernails short and clean. The other hand steadies the client's arm skin with outstretched FIVE fingers pressing gently — skin slightly indented under the fingertip pressure, realistic subcutaneous tension.
Facial expression: intense, focused concentration — brow slightly furrowed, lower lip tucked inward, gaze directed downward at the tattoo needle contact point. The expression is absorbed, professional, alive.
The subject's face and neck are lit by the same warm tungsten overhead lamp illuminating the workspace — no separate beauty light. Skin picks up the same amber-warm cast as the studio walls. Face is not separately lit or composited; it shares the exact lighting environment of the scene.
Outfit: form-neutral short-sleeve black work t-shirt, forearm partially wrapped in plastic stretch film (common tattoo artist hygiene practice). Apron optional.
Background: shallow depth of field bokeh of a tattoo studio — reference prints on walls, ink cup trays, latex glove box. Color grade: deep warm amber shadows, desaturated highlights, slight film grain. Aspect ratio 4:5.
Anatomically correct proportions throughout: 1:7 head-to-body ratio, natural shoulder width, realistic torso length, arms reaching mid-thigh.
Negative: no floating or extra fingers, no merged hand anatomy, no beauty lighting separate from scene, no face composited over body, no stylized or illustrated skin texture, no gender-coded silhouette distortion.
