A steampunk red fox with mystical gears and cogs intricately woven into its fur, glowing with a subtle eldritch aura. Its eyes, an otherworldly luminescent teal, pierce through the heavy shadows, creating a stark contrast against the dark and foggy Victorian alley. The fox is surrounded by a surreal mix of Lovecraftian horror elements; the environment is drenched in an eerie, otherworldly ambiance and peppered with curious arcane artifacts. The scene utilizes Unreal Engine's capabilities with ray tracing for hyper-realistic details, casting dramatic, volumetric lighting that evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue. The wide-angle perspective captures the entire detailed setting with sharp focus, providing a photorealistic and cinematic quality reminiscent of a Dungeons & Dragons character illustration. The digital painting is trending on ArtStation, combining photorealism with concept art flair, infused with smooth, intricate details, and illuminated by soft, natural lighting to heighten the magic photography feel.
