“Um, when I first started, I knew immediately what I was trying to do and I was mimicking a very specific style. Like, I remember like the first image that I saw, I saw some T-pose model of a character from Tony Hawk's pro skater. And I was like, Oh fuck like, I grew up on this game. That's so cool to see. And I was like, That would be wild to make myself in that style and I started to think about like, how would I even do that? And then that kind of snowballed into being like, okay, I can make like so much more than just this.”
