This project was truly a labor of love that I've been working on in sprints. I wanted to find a challenging concept to push my high poly asset creation with a unique design. After shortlisting a couple of Illustrations I ran across this concept by Sora Kim, and after reaching out they were gracious enough to allow me to use their work for a portfolio piece: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/0lLvZY

I wanted to give a shoutout to a couple of artists I reached out to for feedback during the process that pushed me to make it amazing!

John Hannon for sticking with me since I started it to give consistent polish feedback and high-poly workflows: https://www.artstation.com/johnhannon

Eva Sophie Cringle for texture, lighting and presentation feedback
