Rivet is the official weaver of the Loom & Relic universe – a living textile sculpture made from discarded threads, paper scraps, and warm brass stitches. I didn’t start with a drawing; I started with a pile of real leftovers on my desk and the question, “What if the mascot was the one quietly mending everything we abandon?” From there, I used Recraft’s Exploration Mode to generate strange textile silhouettes until one felt inevitable: a tall, calm figure wrapped in linen and brass that looked like it belonged in a museum, not a prompt box.

Every image in this project was built inside Recraft: a master reference sheet to lock in Rivet’s proportions and materials, a hero poster, packaging, lighting studies, and motion. V4 handled the hyper‑real cloth, frayed edges and volumetric light; V4.1 Vector took care of the RIVET wordmark and clean layout assets. A single reference image set keeps the fibers, brass threads and silhouette consistent across posters, merch, UI, and the looped motion clip.
