NFT: USELESS
Useless — Original World & Character Development
Useless is an original project focused on building a complete visual universe from scratch for an animation and NFT concept. I was responsible for the full visual development — from defining the artistic direction to creating characters, environments, and a teaser.
The project started without references or a predefined style. The visual language, lighting, atmosphere, and internal logic of the world were developed organically throughout the process. The universe features cartoon-styled deceased characters from different historical periods, each with a distinct visual identity.
Over 500 unique characters were designed during development, with 100 selected for final use. In parallel, I built a large-scale 3D environment, including village layout, spatial logic, and key locations, refining selected elements through 2D paintover.I also created a teaser for the project, handling scene setup and animation in Blender, followed by post-production in After Effects.
