Thunderstorm Tiger: A Hyper-Real 3D Render

Ultra-realistic 3D render of a Bengal tiger amid a thunderstorm. The tiger stands on rain-soaked earth with powerful muscles visible under slick fur; individual fur strands, water droplets on whiskers, and reflective eyes. A jagged lightning bolt crashes across a stormy sky, casting dramatic backlighting that accentuates the tiger's orange and black stripes. Heavy rain pours in sheets, with volumetric spray and mist swirling around; wind bends grasses and splashes around the paws. Realistic textures for fur, skin, mud, and wet reflections; cinematic composition with shallow depth of field, focus on the tiger. Cool, moody color palette with cool blues and silvery highlights contrasting warm amber fur. Rendered with physically-based lighting for a photoreal look.
