Recently, I’ve been working on the environments for “The Sardine.” Since I’m a big fan of Howl’s Moving Castle, I’ve infused The Sardine with a Ghibli-inspired style. Do these scenes feel Ghibli-like to you?

If you have any suggestions or ideas for improving the environments, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. Thank you very much!
