"While much of the 3D art we’re exposed to now has a vaguely familiar sheen to it, Mickaël Mehala – aka Black Childish – has always been drawn to less ‘perfect’ aesthetics. His 3D illustrations are blended with grainy imperfections and painterly textures that he adds with brush tools in 2D programs, blurring the line between the two mediums and creating a deliberately ambiguous aesthetic."
