Nami 3D Fan Art - One Piece

A few months ago, after watching the new One Piece live-action series on Netflix, I was inspired to create a fan art of one of the main characters, Nami.
I wanted to make an anime version, and I found an artwork of Nami on Pinterest that belongs to a mangaka named Yumi, brilliant artist I must say.
This was also my first time delving into learning Blender to create a complete artwork. I wanted to challenge myself and learn a new software. Blender is a powerful and widely used software that I had been wanting to learn for a long time.
The most interesting aspect of this artwork was exploring the use of the Geometry Node feature in Blender. I utilized it to create all the wind animations, which I think turned out pretty cool. The rest of the animations were created using basic keyframes.
Additionally, I hand-painted everything to give it an authentic painted feel.
