Finished editorial illustration, 16:9 landscape. Viewed from a high three-quarter angle, a comically squat deep-teal cash register occupies the right half of a warm ivory background. Its absurdly long drawer projects diagonally toward the lower centre. The otherwise empty drawer holds one oversized plain orange coin lying flat, the first payment received by a new shop. Keep the coin unobstructed and the clearest focal point. Register has a small blank display and only a few chunky unmarked buttons. Expressive hand-drawn marker contours and broad flat colour fills, with sparse coarse stipple dots recalling engraving in the shadow areas; no intricate hatching. Stylized ambient-occlusion shadows gather beneath the coin, inside the drawer and under the register. Quiet, almost ceremonial spacing balances the playful proportions. Generous empty space on the left, simple silhouettes legible at thumbnail size. No people, text, logos or watermarks.
