## Full Body Problem

If you cannot get the full body of the mecha, especially in the Mecha style, you can try the following approaches:

* Use multiple layers of brackets to emphasize, such as ((full body)).
* **Use descriptive words like "mechanical leg" or "mechanical feet".**
* Specify the desired aspect ratio, such as 1:2 or 9:16, to ensure a larger canvas for the full body representation.
