Ryuko Matoi Cosplay — Glossy Senketsu Studio, Photo 9

Low and wide, the stance drops Ryuko Matoi toward the floor: right knee deeply bent, left leg stretched out, body leaning forward over the bent knee. The Scissor Blade stays low in her right hand and runs almost level along the bottom third of the frame, while her left hand opens out to the side.

She looks straight into the camera with an alert, determined expression. The low, waist-level viewpoint takes in the whole figure, from the top of the hair to both red shoes and the lowered blade.

The open gloved hand, light and spread, plays against the heavy red mass of the weapon near the matte violet-blue floor, and the reflective Senketsu outfit picks up sharp accents at the hips and torso. Her backdrop is a wash of violet and pink studio light around a pale lilac halo.
