As soon as I found a free moment, I didn’t go to draw—I ran straight to Nomad.
I missed it so much. I’ts become even more wonderful.
I added a few little details. Now I think I’ll start gluing things together, fixing, and smoothing out everything.

I can’t really explain it, but all those AI images that try to look cute fall straight into the uncanny valley. The shapes are off, the structure is off, the render is off. You can see they’re aiming for “cute,” but the result feels dead and completely without character. I’ve never been against AI, but it just can’t handle shapes in a way that creates any real, pleasant emotion… which is why it mostly lives in the cheap-content corner.

We were talking about this, and I realized something: it’s the imperfections that make a drawing feel alive.
It’s funny, because for as long as I’ve been drawing, I always tried to make everything clean, precise, almost “perfect.”
But now it feels like the opposite is true — you don’t really need to chase perfection at all.
Maybe that’s why both I and many others enjoy sketches more than finished pieces.
So here are a few of my imperfect sketches and concepts.
