DESCRIPTION

The Medusa Gaze is a hauntingly beautiful representation of one of Greek mythology’s most infamous figures — the Gorgon whose eyes could turn any onlooker into stone. This artwork embodies the paradox of Medusa’s legend: at once terrifying and mesmerizing. Her gaze, frozen in this depiction, is more than just a look of menace; it is a profound symbol of cursed beauty, rage, and tragic fate. The sculpted or rendered detail highlights her serpentine crown of writhing snakes, each coiled with lifelike menace, amplifying the aura of dread that surrounds her visage.

Every curve of her face reflects both the sorrow of her transformation and the fierce power she wields. The artistry captures the intensity of her stare, as though even in stillness, she could command fear and fascination. The texture of the piece, from the scales of the serpents to the cracks of divine wrath etched into her form, conveys both fragility and indomitable strength. The Medusa Gaze is not merely an object of mythological art; it is an embodiment of the eternal struggle between beauty and monstrosity, victimhood and vengeance, mortality and myth. Whether showcased as a centerpiece in myth-inspired collections or as a symbol of unflinching power, this piece serves as a timeless reminder of Medusa’s enduring place in human imagination.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
