Nightmare Kart dev update 2024/4/20-23 (Spoilers!)
Added 2024-04-24 01:41:33 +0000 UTCBeen working on the moon presence redesign the past 3 days, and here are the results so far!
The most notable thing is the new texture. After multiple attempts of a new tentacle texture, I landed on using morel mushrooms as inspiration, which have a pitted fleshy surface. I then took the three branched tentacles of the original and changed two of them into wings, and removed the branches on the last one to make it look more like a traditional tail.
The 'face hole' of the original is now filled with a fleshy eye and teeth.
All these things together create this new design, who is called the Architect, and is responsible for the nightmare the game takes place in. I added in splotches of multiple colors as I always felt 'has every color' gives off an ethereal all knowing vibe, something that Majora's Mask used for its own final boss encounter
I still need to update the torso, which is unchanged from the original texture, but this is still significant progress on a very very very important character that I absolutely need to stick the landing on.
