It looks like he just found the original piece of stock artwork that indian goddess thing came from. It does look great though.

Yep! SSD and such can help a bit, but the files are 2-4x larger.

These textures are intended for the LanternEQ client. You can check out the new site here: https://www.lanterneq.com/. Come to the Discord and see the Lantern client running these textures with Full AO and such. It's so good.
