This is a WIP, as I try to figure out how to add a spin to the propeller without messing up the mist.

A small model propeller airplane painted white with red markings flies toward the viewer through swirling smoke or mist, with its landing gear visible against a dark, cloudy background fading into a light foreground.

A small anime-style figurine with tousled blond hair and a black eyepatch stands on a ledge in front of a frosted window. The character wears a bright yellow shirt with white graphic lines, black pants, and black-and-white sneakers, smiling with one hand raised near the chin against a softly blurred wintery background.
