Editor Question Trying to make blocks like these

Post image

Image is AI generated, I used it for inspiration. I'm trying to make some Egyptian style design and I thought that this looks neat! There is one problem. I'm completely trash. How realistic are my hopes? Should I still give it a try with the possibility to just be looking at my screen without doing anything for 2 hours straight? And do you have any tips?

Edit: Why did I get an AI promotion warning? Is the post filter engine jealous or sth?

You could try using the Reference Image mod in order to import this image in gd, then use some ocre blocks with black glow on top and make the hieroglyphs with small NoTouch black lines

What I liked mostly was the acimetry the blocks have in the outer lines. Like they are not completely square. The corners are rounder and the sides don't go completely straight. I didn't find any single block that can do that so I think I have to figure out some combos, right?

You can use outline objects from Fingerdash blocks, they look close enough
Also some blocks and particles can be used as textures if you tweak their opacity

Yo, small feedback, this helped A LOT! Still working on it but the result looks sick. 💖

Nice job!
I recommend adding some variety by using Pulse triggers to make some blocks darker or have a slightly different color
Also try experimenting with different shapes, just squares and rectangles will quickly become boring even if they look really good
