Venti Cosplay — Angel Wings and Lyre, Photo 3

Kneeling upright on a gray studio floor, Venti faces the camera almost square, chin raised and turned up to the right, eyes lifted above and outside the frame, lips slightly parted. The white feathered wings open wide behind him against a gray seamless backdrop, in a vertical full-length frame shot level with his torso.

Light from the front left and slightly above leaves shadows between the feathers and picks out the bronze-gold mounts and dark spikes of the wings. With the palette neutral and slightly cool, the color comes from the gold-trimmed bodice, the gold hip plates and a round mint, teal and yellow medallion. The small dark wooden lyre stands apart from the figure, down by the knees.

As the opening photograph, it shows Venti openly as Barbatos, the Anemo Archon of Genshin Impact, rather than as the wandering bard most of Mondstadt takes him for.
