Character reference card, full-length figure centered on a plain white seamless background, neutral stance facing camera, even soft studio light, clean readable silhouette, textured skin and fabric (not airbrushed). Style: Hand-drawn 2D animation, warm colours, gentle nostalgic mood.. CHARACTER Elias: A man in his late 60s with deeply lined, sun-bronzed skin and a thick, unkempt silver-white beard that reaches his collarbone. His eyes are a piercing, stormy blue, framed by heavy, weary lids and crow's feet. He has a broad, stooped frame suggesting years of manual labor. He wears a heavy, hand-knitted navy wool roll-neck sweater and a thick, salt-stained yellow oilskin coat that is frayed at the cuffs. His expression is one of quiet, watchful stoicism. Background is a dimly lit, stone-walled interior with the warm, rotating amber glow of a lighthouse lens passing over him.. Everyone depicted is an adult. No text, no watermark.
