Art style: Claymation.
A desolate, rain-slicked New York street at midnight with a heavy iron padlock on a weathered wooden tavern door. A single flickering streetlamp casts long, dramatic shadows across the cobblestones and a discarded newspaper. The atmosphere is gloomy and oppressive, with a dominant palette of deep charcoal, navy blue, and sickly yellow light reflecting off puddles. Shot from a low-angle wide perspective to emphasize the scale of the city's silence.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
high-end 3D cinematic claymation / stop-motion — hyper-stylized cartoon proportions with sharp geometric heads, huge bulging matte-white eyes with tiny sculpted pupils, sculpted hand-painted hair. Skin and hair show a tactile polymer-clay texture with subtle surface imperfections, slight bumps, soft matte finish — looking exactly like a physical hand-sculpted clay model. Clothing and accessories rendered hyper-realistically (glossy nylon, ribbed knit, leather, metal). Cinematic warm ambient practical-source lighting. 8k Octane render quality.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
