Create a sophisticated COMIC-BOOK ILLUSTRATION of Lulu as an original nighttime guardian. Confident varied ink outlines, layered painted shading, selective graphic shadows and subtle print texture; clearly illustration, not photo or flat children's cartoon.
Seated naturally on broad damp stone terrace after a light shower, body angled face towards viewer. Charcoal cape muted burgundy lining small brushed-silver crescent clasp, white chest marking visible. Slim charcoal mask fitted lightly above muzzle, generous eye openings preserve facial spacing and expression; nose and floppy ears free. No pointed costume ears, armour or bodysuit.
Low parapet behind dog, receding varied city buildings distant water tower amber windows and thin mist layers. Few fine rain streaks background only, subtle puddle reflections. Midnight blue charcoal burgundy natural copper palette. Soft amber light left and faint cool reflected fill, readable shadows no neon glow. No text at all.

REFERENCE AND IDENTITY
Use the attached original pet photograph as the primary reference for identity and anatomy. For this example the pet is Lulu. Follow the photograph over any written description. Preserve her reddish-brown short coat, long broad muzzle, black nose, natural brown eyes and spacing, broad floppy ears, actual head shape, tiny white chest marking and individual asymmetry. Keep her gently curious closed-mouth expression. Do not substitute a generic dog, enlarge eyes, shorten the muzzle or add a human smile. Remove the collar and identification tag completely; do not reproduce any tag information.

ANATOMY
Preserve the actual long body and short legs. Natural canine posture and physically supported paws; no human torso, arms, hands, fingers or extra limbs. Both ears remain freely visible. Costumes must fit the dog rather than alter her body.

COMPOSITION AND FINISH
Create portrait 3:4 artwork at the dog's eye level. Keep the dog large and immediately recognisable, with face upper-middle, complete ears and both front paws inside the frame, comfortable margins above and beside the head and below any wording for later print cropping. Use coherent contact shadows, perspective and light. Preserve natural brown eyes with small restrained highlights, no glowing pupils. No branded characters, existing franchise costumes or logos, watermarks, frames or extra animals. Return only the finished artwork at the highest available native resolution. Prioritise likeness, anatomy, specified medium and correctly spelled wording.
