This 3D Character from Upcoming Pirate Sim Is Not What It Seems

Merging 2D and 3D seems to be a trend among 3D artists, reflected in their amazing artwork, such as this Kuroama's Live2D simulation and Kevin Temmer's animations created for The Amazing Digital Ciscus. The eye-catching demo by Developer 128 MHz is a perfect example of the play between 2D and 3D, showing how a 3D setup actually can be a flat 2D picture.

The setup refers to an upcoming pirate game, Brass Bellow, an open-world adventure that combines boat-building, RPG features, and life-sim characteristics. As a resident of The Grand Pond, you construct a boat, battle pirates, and embark on an journey across the endless sea.

Apart from the main quest, there are side challenges and other activities that you can enjoy, such as photography, gardening, cooking, smithing, and even alchemy.

Brass Bellow features peculiar visuals and characters whose representations are reminiscent of optical illusions. Check out another character from the game crafted using the same effect:
