Art style: Cinematic Neo-Noir.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered on a storm-battered wooden dock at dusk, the misty Aegean coastline of a Greek island filling the sides. Elias is a rugged sponge diver in his late thirties, 1901 — sun-darkened olive skin, a strong weathered face lined by wind and salt, dark deep-set eyes with a fierce, determined stare, a thick unkempt black beard streaked lightly with grey, damp black hair pushed back. Lean, wiry, muscular build hardened by diving. He wears a heavy off-white knit fisherman's sweater, patched dark canvas trousers rolled at the ankle, a wide leather belt, and a coiled brass-and-canvas diving hose slung over one shoulder. Bare, calloused wet feet grip the planks. Beside him rests a battered copper diving helmet.

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 "Cinematic Neo-Noir" idiom, not in any other medium.
