Art style: Pixar-like 3D.
A clearly recognizable likeness of Santa Claus — keep their real face shape, skin tone, hairstyle, build and any signature look (hair, kit, number). A sturdy, elderly man with a very thick, snow-white beard and sparkling blue eyes. He has a jolly, round face with rosy cheeks and a friendly, warm expression. He is wearing a high-quality red velvet suit with white fur trim and a matching hat. He has large, gentle hands. The setting is a cozy, dimly lit living room with a glowing fireplace in the background, creating warm highlights on his face and beard.
