Art style: Pixar-like 3D.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright and centered in the frame — Max, a lively seven-year-old boy, the oldest-brother ringleader and self-appointed captain of the backyard crew. Round, bright face with warm fair skin, big expressive hazel eyes, a scatter of freckles across the nose, and a wide gap-toothed grin. Messy sandy-brown hair with a cowlick sticking up. Slim, energetic build, average height for his age. He wears a striped red-and-white long-sleeve shirt, denim shorts with scuffed knees, a makeshift pirate look: a cardboard sword tucked in a rope belt, a paper tricorn hat, and a cloth eyepatch pushed up on his forehead. Bright blue sneakers with untied laces. One hand points boldly forward in a commanding pose, chin lifted, mischievous confident smile. Sunny morning backyard with a wooden fence, a cardboard-box pirate ship, and a leafy tree behind him.
