A grounded, street-level noir comic illustration of a tired private investigator standing in a narrow rain-soaked alley at night, city steam rising from a manhole, wet brick walls and scattered trash reflecting neon signage. Realistic proportions, expressive face with subtle micro-emotions, heavy-lidded eyes, faint bruises, stubble, rumpled coat, loosened tie, hands in pockets. Cinematic lighting with strong contrast and practical light sources (neon, streetlamp, storefront glow), moody shadows, limited color palette with muted blues, sickly greens, and warm amber accents. Lived-in urban textures: peeling posters, graffiti layers, water streaks, chipped paint, grime. Inked linework with confident contour lines, selective crosshatching, textured shading that feels like printed comics, slightly rough brush/ink edges. 3/4 view, medium shot, shallow depth of field, film-noir atmosphere, quiet tension, storytelling details (a torn photo in his hand, a cigarette ember, distant siren glow).
