Did I stay up until 2am because I was obsessed with finishing this monstrosity?
Perhaps
I had a conversation about two months ago with someone about how I'm so anal about having high detail, correct references to the point I rip character models out of the game and then inspect them in Blender in ridiculous detail, even tho I know I don't have the skill level to make use of that resource.
And then it devolved into "why don't you make your own 3D model refs for harder angles" and I disregarded that at first, but then remembered that yeeeeeeears and years ago, I used to do the same thing for a comic I made in the past and of how helpful it was. And given I already had Blender anyway, I thought I might give it a try again.
My old college professor would strangle me if he saw this. There's tons of amateurish mistakes and it definitely isn't something that could be used in any way other than a rough reference for tougher angles, but that was. Kinda the point of this. It was still a lot of fun to make.
