Since we're talking about aesthetics of the 2000s, I'd like to bring attention to the gloomy brownish style of the late 2000s/early 2010s. It was the shit back then if you wanted to make Grimm brothers style dark fantasy or steampunk.

Not to defend NFTs, but copying the image has little to no impact to them. It's like saying that taking photos at a museum is theft.
People gotta understand that the image is just a barcode, and that the true value lies in how many power grids they black out per transaction.

Holy shit you're right.
It's very likely the artist setup the scene in something like Unreal 4 and then didn't realize they were painting backfaces.
OR
The whole thing is a 3D render with a strong paint shader on it.
That video didn't really do justice to the model so now I'm gonna post a bunch of renders of him. This how far into the process I'm allowing myself to reveal him.
Since you guys seem to like this post I'd like to add that, yes, I'm an artist in case you were wondering. And like uhhh, you can follow if you want, ahaha just kidding... unless ? 😳
Something I've noticed with most of the fanarts I get is how people draw Joey with a concave nose bridge and his fin higher up on his head, which kinda is how I first used to draw him ages ago.
Here's a design I've had in the back of my mind for a while. Wanted to show what

's character would look like if he was a Machine Slayer alongside Joey and the others.
If I had to cite more example, I'd add Coraline (thanks for reminding me), an obscure 2005 film called MirrorMask. Even Heinz Wolff's Gravity's background art.
I'm seeing all those "Artist, let me see your improvement over 5 years." tweets going around. But trust me, you've never seen a glowup as funny as this one.
Twitter is stuck in a time loop where every 2 months some guy will tweet a video of dudes working on the same piece of equipment in an oil rig in an attempt to make it a "gotcha" moment for leftists.

Tactile feel is what I crave for in sci-fi, for only this can truly connect a user and their machine. This also extends to having less actuated parts and more elbow grease.
Canopies you pull yourself, manual reloading on firearms, 21st century engineering for minor components.
