“Looking within myself for inspiration for something stylised yet detailed and related to nature, I explored the idea of something that symbolises a type of nature entity. Inspired by the concept of Chengwei Pan.”

“I love creating detailed and robotic things, so the idea of explosions and cyborgs was perfect for exploring that and creating a harmony behind it. Inspired by the concept of Chengwei Pan.”
