(fantasy painting, dark, hyper realistic) A close-up of a male figure with shoulder-length wavy silver hair flowing smoothly over his bronze-toned skin. His face is partially obscured by an avant-garde asymmetrical chrome skull mask, fragmented and warped with sharp, irregular edges, its polished surface scattered with shimmering reflections that heighten its surreal and futuristic presence. Thin chrome chains hang from his ears, swaying with delicate motion and catching fractured light. A thick sculptural metallic collar encircles his neck, accentuating the experimental aesthetic. He wears a crimson velvet shirt, its deep red fabric rich with soft texture that contrasts against the hard, reflective chrome elements. In the dark background, splashes and suspended droplets of liquid mercury float weightlessly, their fluid metallic forms reflecting distorted fragments of the figure and his surroundings. Dramatic lighting carves intense highlights across the chains, mask, and collar, amplifying the hyper-realistic details and creating a mesmerizing, otherworldly atmosphere.
