Hah! If you want to step into a Hiroshi Nagai painting as a 3D world, that's basically what happens in my Ambient Garden project. In fact I was surprised that nobody ever pointed it out despite all the visitors: https://ambient.garden/

Editing to respond to multiple replies: Yes, he's painted a series of landscapes with that specific pointillism technique. The best I could find is a pretty random link, but it might be the most relevant painting: https://fortinbrah.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/...



This is more impressionist pointillist than Nagai’s airbrush style.


Excellent, edit, that painting looks almost exactly like your world to me. Very cool project.


The dots make that site look very pointillist to me, and the colors are pretty impressionistic too. And it's just paths through a hilly landscape with trees as far as I can tell, none of the beaches or architectural and urban settings in Hiroshi Nagai's paintings. Maybe I'm missing something though.
