Art style: pixel cinematic. A wide shot of the Chernobyl Unit 4 control room in 1986. The room is filled with vertical panels of analog dials, toggle switches, and glowing green monitors. The atmosphere is calm and professional. Warm amber light from the overhead lamps reflects off the polished linoleum floor. A lead engineer stands at the center console, hand resting on a lever, looking at the screens with confidence. The colors are muted greys and greens with warm highlights. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "pixel cinematic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "pixel cinematic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "pixel cinematic" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Nikolai Sokolov: A man in his mid-50s with a sharp, focused gaze and salt-and-pepper hair tucked under a white regulation cap. He wears a clean, buttoned-up white laboratory coat with a Soviet-era insignia on the pocket. His face shows years of experience with deep-set eyes and a well-groomed mustache. He stands in a high-tech control room with glowing dials and analog switches. The lighting is cool and sterile, emphasizing the precision of his environment. The background features complex machinery and indicator lights.
