Create an ultra-detailed steampunk portrait of a female character, emphasizing her human features such as her expressive eyes, subtle facial markings, and the natural softness of her skin. Her gaze should be serene yet confident, adding a depth of personality. The character's headgear is composed of intricately designed metallic elements, including gears, clock faces, and delicate ornamental machinery, seamlessly blending with her flowing silver hair. The intricate mechanical elements should almost appear as an extension of her, blurring the line between human and machine. The attire features frills and plates that contrast with the mechanical components, offering a blend of classic elegance and futuristic steampunk. The background should include large, detailed gears that appear to be both part of her and extending into the environment, creating a cohesive and complex visual. The lighting should be brilliant, highlighting the mix of organic and mechanical, while casting soft shadows that add depth and realism.
