Una creatura emaciata osserva un passero nella gabbia ornata sul suo petto

Studio portrait photograph of a practical creature-effects character, an ancient emaciated androgynous being with an elongated bald skull, ash-grey deeply wrinkled skin with dark age spots, sunken pale eyes with reddened rims, thin closed lips. Its open chest is an ornate tarnished brass birdcage built into the ribs, a small grey sparrow sitting inside. One long skeletal finger gently taps the cage bars, head tilted down to watch the bird. Draped faded teal silk around the hips. Plain grey seamless backdrop, one large soft key light from front-left, gentle cool fill, three colors only: ash grey, tarnished brass, faded teal. Medium format, 90mm lens, f/8, whole figure in sharp focus, natural contrast, realistic wrinkles and blemishes, silicone prosthetics by a creature effects workshop, no CGI look, no glow, no text.
