CREATOR COLLECTIBLE: HEADPHONES

Tailored to a creator’s brand, interests, and aesthetic, this asset was built following Ultraviolet’s pivot from a metaverse platform to a creator-focused club. I was tasked with transforming a generic vendor model into a personalized, high-fidelity collectible—without discarding prior work.

PROCESS

Smart reuse
Rather than starting from scratch, I identified an existing vendor mesh that matched the general silhouette. This allowed me to work efficiently while maintaining consistency with the platform’s existing asset library.

Clean retopo— optimize and remove unnecessary polys
The original mesh was dense without detail. I optimized from 9,834 polys to 2,980 polys.

Brand-driven texture pass
I retextured the model using the creator’s favorite colors and visual language, hand-painting stylized details to reflect her aesthetic and personality. The result: a unique asset that felt intentional and high polish, without reinventing the wheel.
