It is time to unfold my vision for this game.

You were probably expecting some super highpoly, photorealistic nymphs; no... or to be more precisely, yes.. of course there may be super detailed nymph avatar to play with. This game is intended to be fully moddable... within any reasonable knowledge of Blender you'll be able to import anything... from anywhere.

But Pama basic asset of art, as I do like to dream it.. should look exactly like this.


It's toon, it's fantasy: but they aren't your average weebo with shiny eyes. These nymph are cute, yet firmly adult. As for how they look those ladies seems to be coming from fairy tales... and yet there's something that goes a bit deeper. Pupils are just simple black dots on wide white sclera , like you see in modern animated TV show from Simpson, Futurama and going on.

Now, I see you're just going to yell me "those are elven females!" and... well, yeah. Nowdays you can't have the combo: "kinky fantasy+mythical female+woods" without jumping immediately to the omnipresent sylphic damsel of the norse mythology. You can't also just put mundane humanish round ears and expect people still drinking the "she's mythical" stuff: you need to do something about those ears! So... nekomimi? I beg to differ! Furry? ok... let's warp up this for a second.

We need these nymph linked to nature, right? Satyr.. that's simple: those are goat. Beasts capable to eat anything: they are linked to lust for some reason. Are they what we call furry? I don't think.

To stay coherent with nymph lore we should depict them as tree, or part of tree such as bark, branches and stuff like that.. not the most sexually and active imaginary we could use, so... what's a challenging figure to put versus those goats? Well... here we go!  Taygete, a nymph, a doe with golden horns: the perfect to put those horny goats (pun intentional: fully blame on me) to their place: horns vs horns.

These nymph will have doe's ears, doe's tail: nekomini? Yeah, you can say that.. but would you call Satyrs furry too? They had "nekomimi" ears before furry (or even Aespo for the matter) existed.

There will be four nymphs initially. in the earlier image you can see the first two: the curly haired, kinda of angelic smile, and another which more "devilish" kind, These two are sort of "linked", they have quite opposite look... and opposite thing are the best way to start something that will look balanced and varied.

Inspiration for the curly haired angelic nymph comes from this gorgeous lady drew by FewScrewsLoose. I truly suggest you to follow his works; the women he drew are more natural you would feel, and you would love, to meet in real life
