I like the idea of a "quiet web”, so I occasionally post updates and reflections on the blog.

[3D] N64 Butterfly (April 9, 2025)

today i've been revising the basic butterfly from Spirit Lens aka 'Janufly'

n64 mushroom blender
i started off by making a 32x64 texture in asesprite using the mirror mode and fill tool to get the basic shape before adding more detail.

i then created a set of variations of color for the different rarities of janufly in the game.


(note: the 'shiny' body texture is achieved using a simple gradient. very effective!)

as usual, the geometry itself is very simple:

so yeah, just a quick update on the new 'braver'
and more 'brutalist' visual style.
