Hyper-Real Macro Photography of a Tiny Character

Create a hyper-real macro photograph of a tiny (CHARACTER) about 10–12 cm tall, gently held between a real human thumb and index finger or sitting on the fingertip. The character naturally touches the thumb for scale and holds (ACCESSORY). Studio setting with a soft grey gradient background, subtle bokeh. Skin, fabric and hair show micro-texture; add accurate contact shadows where fingers meet the character. Lighting: softbox at 45°, faint rim light on the far side; no harsh glare. Camera look: 100mm macro • f/2.8 • ISO 100 • 1/160s (shallow depth of field; eyes perfectly in focus). Hands look clean, natural anatomy, 5 fingers, realistic nails and pores. The character’s outfit is simple textured knit (dark grey) unless the identity demands otherwise; proportions and perspective must read real, not toy. Treat (CHARACTER) respectfully and keep likeness faithful if based on a real person. Composition: subject centered, from mid-torso up, with the thumb and index framing the character;
