Character reference sheet of "Кок Борщ" (the ship's cook) for an animated sea-comedy series, based on the uploaded image — keep his face, identity and all details EXACTLY the same. A huge, hulking mountain of a man with a stern, brick-like square face, ruddy weathered skin, small squinting stern eyes, thick brown handlebar moustache, and massive muscular hairy arms. He wears a tall white chef's toque hat, a dirty stained cream/white short-sleeved sailor T-shirt with a blue-and-white striped telnyashka collar showing at the neck, a blue-and-white checkered gingham apron tied at the waist, cream/beige waders trousers, and tall dark olive-green rubber boots. He holds a big battered aluminium cooking pot full of fish soup in one arm and a wooden ladle in the other hand. Cinematic realistic 3D CGI style, warm soft lighting. Full-body character turnaround pose, neutral clean light-grey studio background — no boat, no sea, no nets, no seagulls, no fish on the ground, isolated character reference for consistent reuse across all episodes. Keep the exact same facial features, moustache shape, chef hat, apron and outfit as the reference image.
