Hooded shadow sprite at glass

Aspect ratio 2:3. The entire canvas is a dark fogged glass surface with charcoal-to-black gradients, fine condensation grain, sparse droplets, and a soft vignette that keeps the upper area calm and readable. In the lower third, slightly right of center, two clear wiped patches appear on the glass: an oval window for a face and a smaller patch near it for hands. Behind the glass, a small 3D hooded shadow sprite with velvety matte fabric, a tiny stitched mouth, and two dim ember eyes presses forward, with soft mitten-like hands touching the glass edge. The face is only visible through the wiped oval and fades into darkness at the edges, while the rest of the body dissolves into the fog. Add two distinct swipe streaks that lead into the clear patches, shaped to feel like the character’s hands rather than human marks. Lighting is low-key with a thin cool highlight sweep across the glass and a faint warm glow around the eyes inside the cleared area. Keep the composition minimal with large negative space and no text.
