SUBJECT LOCK — ABSOLUTE IDENTITY PRESERVATION:
Use the reference photo as the absolute basis for the man. Preserve 100% of his facial identity, bone proportions, facial structure, original expression, distinctive features, natural skin microtexture, visible pores, small imperfections, and unique characteristics. Do not alter his identity, morph his face, or beautify him. He must be the same person as in the reference photo. Keep his age, ethnicity, and facial hair exactly as shown in the reference.

WARDROBE — DARK BEN 10:
He wears a heavy, pure-black cotton T-shirt, faded and extremely worn: a corrupted version of Ben 10. The “10” logo on his chest is not white; it is cracked and burned, with the Omnitrix’s dark toxic green glow shining through the cracks. Give the fabric realistic wear, dust, tiny tears, and folds.

He wears beige tactical cargo pants in a dark version: dirty and stained with ash and mud, with a heavy canvas texture, large side pockets with straps and buckles, visible stitching and fabric fibers, and slight tears at the knees. Add heavy black military combat boots made of matte leather, with scratches, mud, worn soles, and metal eyelets.

OMNITRIX:
On his left forearm, place a DARK CORRUPTED Omnitrix. It is not the classic toy, but a heavy biomechanical device made of black obsidian and dark gunmetal, with a pulsing toxic-green central energy core, cracked glass, scratches, and glowing green veins spreading onto his skin. It should look like heavy molten metal.

THE ALIENS — DARK, TERRIFYING, REALISTIC LIVE-ACTION CREATURES AROUND HIM, IN A CIRCLE OF EIGHT:
1. DARK FOUR ARMS: A four-meter-tall Tetramand nightmare with dark crimson, almost-black skin covered in black tribal tattoos and scar tissue. Give him four massive arms with black claws and bulging veins, a second pair of eyes glowing green, broken armor plates, and a roaring expression.
2. DARK HEATBLAST: Not orange fire, but a walking obsidian magma golem with cracks leaking toxic green and black flames. His head is a black lava-rock skull with green fire inside the eye sockets. Add rising smoke and embers; his skin should look like burned coal.
3. DARK XLR8: A biomechanical horror resembling a velociraptor, thin and skeletal, with a black exoskeleton and sharp spikes. His face is a dark visor helmet fused to his skin, with one glowing green eye slit. Give him blade-like claws, motion blur, and spasmodic movement.
4. DARK WILDMUTT: A blind hellhound beast covered in matted dark orange fur, blood, and mud, with enormous exposed fangs and green-glowing neck gills. Make him muscular, on all fours, drooling and ferocious, with chains around his neck.
5. DARK DIAMONDHEAD: Not bright green crystal, but a golem made of sharp black obsidian diamonds, with toxic green light refracting from within. Give him an irregular, angular face and a body covered in razor-sharp crystal spikes, with light cracking through them.
6. DARK CANNONBOLT: A giant spherical armored creature with heavy dark gray and black armor covered in spikes and dents. A sickly glowing yellow eye peers from within the armor plates. He should resemble a cursed, armadillo-like war tank, rolling forward.
7. DARK STINKFLY: A biomechanical insect horror with four insect eyes glowing green, translucent black veined wings, and a slimy exoskeleton coated in green mucus. Give him four arms ending in pincers, insect legs, and drool.
8. DARK GHOSTFREAK: The true horror, a floating ghost in a tattered dark gray shroud made of living skin, with one glowing green eye beneath the hood. Add chains and tentacles emerging from within the cloak, claws, and ectoplasmic smoke. Make him genuinely terrifying.

EPIC DARK POSTER SETTING:
Create an epic dark apocalyptic movie-poster composition. The man stands at the center of a destroyed alien city at night during a toxic green storm. The cracked ground is threaded with glowing green Omnitrix energy lines. Add heavy rain, smoke, and dust in the air. All eight dark aliens surround him in a semicircle behind him, like guardians or demons. Use a dramatic low-angle hero shot that conveys an impending war. In the background, a burning horizon is visible, with the Omnitrix symbol projected onto the clouds.

CAMERA AND LIGHTING:
Captured with an ARRI ALEXA 65 large-format sensor and a premium high-resolution anamorphic cinema lens, such as Cooke Anamorphic or Panavision C-Series. Use an aperture between T1.4 and T2.8, cinematic shallow depth of field, soft oval anamorphic bokeh, subtle lens breathing, and controlled anamorphic flare.

Use feature-film-level cinematic lighting: dark low-key lighting, a soft but directional key light, toxic green rim light separating the subject from the background, subtle fill light, delicate edge lighting, natural gradual shadows, and natural high dynamic range. Include physically accurate specular reflections on the skin and Omnitrix, plus subtle volumetric atmosphere with haze, dust, and airborne rain particles. Light should interact realistically with the skin, with visible subsurface scattering.

QUALITY AND COLOR:
Native 8K quality with extreme sharpness and microdetail: individual pores, natural skin oil texture, distinct hair, beard, and eyebrow strands with realistic highlights, fabric fibers, stitching, surface irregularities, and fine digital cinema sensor grain.

Use blockbuster live-action composition and classic cinematic framing, with sophisticated visual balance and natural, desaturated, dark, restrained colors. Apply high-quality cinematic grading in the style of ARRI or Kodak Vision3 5219, but keep the result extremely natural and dark: biologically accurate skin tones, balanced contrast, deep blacks with residual detail, soft highlights, and an organic tonal transition. Avoid exaggerated saturation, artificial colors, an excessively HDR look, or an overprocessed appearance. The final result must be indistinguishable from a frame taken from a real movie shot on large-format digital film. No AI artifacts, plastic skin, excessively perfect symmetry, or artificial texture.

Style: dark, raw, horror, corrupted, apocalyptic, photorealistic live-action Ben 10 remake, with a Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, and The Batman (2022) aesthetic.
