Painterly Samurai.

Used reverse alpha sorting to get the weird perspective on the darker pics.

Soooo kinda hard to explain but I’ll try.

Basically since the models is composed of thousands of splats/faces stacked on top of each other.

Due to the way Alpha transparency works in Eevee next, you have to ‘sort’ the index of each face by distance to the camera.

That way transparency is correctly stacked on top of each other.

But you can mess with the sorting - like reversing it - so the back of the model appears at the front.

Kind of thing I’m doing here:
