Hoo boy. I've had a lot of attempts at 3D modeling before this one and I lacked guidance on what to do with it until recently. Sure, I've always wanted to have my own chao in VRChat aside from the ones provided by the Chao World (good world btw, here's a link for you VRChat users). However, I've learned a technique where you could just trace around a reference image by extruding vertices around it, and that's when this (approximately) 1-month journey truly started. I couldn't be any happier with the result. :>
