Today, I finished and shipped a Byzantine warrior countryball to the United States. This was probably the most complex countryball I’ve ever created.
I had to use new materials and techniques that I had never worked with before. The biggest challenge was crafting a helmet that resembled a real metal one. To achieve this, I chose synthetic leather with textures similar to steel and gold.
Designing the patterns for these new materials required precise and meticulous calculations—synthetic leather is unforgiving of mistakes 😊
