Replace “editorial close framing” with “extreme macro portrait crop from forehead to collarbone,” and change “high-detail focus on fused components” to “the circuit boards, fiber-optic cables, servo motors, and brass connectors occupy most of the frame.” Add “face partially obscured by layered mechanical assemblies” if you want the machinery to overtake the human features.

Replace “blue studio background with a subtle gradient” with “near-black industrial background with faint red technical glow,” and change “crisp directional lighting” to “low-key underlighting with narrow red rim light and deep shadows.” Keep “matte black circuit boards,” but add “wet reflective surfaces and scattered warning LEDs” for a harsher atmosphere.

Keep “photorealistic surreal side-profile portrait” and “face and neck seamlessly integrated” unchanged, then swap the component list for controlled themes such as “transparent glass circuitry, silver micro-actuators, and violet fiber-optic strands” or “corroded copper plates, hydraulic pistons, and amber cables.” Preserve “editorial close framing,” “blue studio background,” and “shallow depth of field” so the subject and visual structure remain consistent across the series.
