The Face Tracking in action! It's very reserved in the mouth and brows, more than I thought it would be :0 a struggle as much as it was fun ^^
The things I want to do now are smol and (hopefully) simple x3 I may soon have a dewclaw on my pawbs ;3
Have a great weekend y'all!

Cioran was the first philosopher I ever studied. His works are still the screen through which I filter all philosophy, science, art, and religion.
My one shame is in never having read On the Heights of Despair 😔 Before year's end this will be rectified >:3

Jean Baudrillard died on this day 18 years ago.
“Everywhere one seeks to produce meaning, to make the world signify, to render it visible. We are not, however, in danger of lacking meaning; quite the contrary, we are gorged with meaning and it is killing us.”

Oh nooo I translated the colors onto the Spiri'vali and I think I love them too much 😳🥰
It is really well setup to work on, from the tracking, texturing, shader, and especially the looks 👀
Would recommend peeps who wanna Avali check it out ^-^
