Digging up some old files. I've always liked the approach on this project—ZSpheres to get the silhouette, rough sculpt dictating the edges, decimate (lazy, perfect) and a manual sharpening of edges. Tiny texture, project UVs and you're gold.

The job market is dead. The script is broken. The luteal phase is winning. But I bought a pen that looks like a pipe from a starship engine, and I wrote 200k words about monsters falling in love inside a black hole. Survival is weird. Art is weird. We keep going.

Angel Wings. When pressed, they look like they belong to something ancient, subterranean. The vasculature is mesmerizing under light.

Designing the origin myth for the world's primary magic resource. Born from a goddess's regret. Weaponized grief.

They made me do it. The bastards actually made me fight him on NG++.
I hate them.
2nd try, though. My hands are shaking.

"A fine line between exhaustion and murder."
An overpaint test over the sculpt. The goal: fight the poison of over-rendering.
I needed to respect the anatomy, test the palette, and break the dead-eyed doll trap 3D meshes tend to have.

Writing the damage is one thing. Sculpting the scar tissue is another.

I handwrite the draft at night. Type it into the phone in the morning. Somewhere in between, autocorrect decided to turn a lance of darkness into a lethal vegetable.

Why spend years learning to paint when you can spend days bullying a render engine with math until it submits?

The irony is that it takes hours of precise, grueling geometry to make it look like she just ran her hands through it in desperation. Calculated chaos.

Technically, it's just coordinate data. Visually, it’s the exact last thing my character sees after I mistime a dodge roll against a swamp boss.

Versus the stylized low-poly: the pretty, efficient lie we feed to the machine to keep it happy.

If you're going to forge a blade that cuts intention, bends the veil between worlds, and hums with a god's regrets—you can't just toss it in the armory. You have to spend the extra hours making its archive page look halfway decent.
