A glossy black-chrome wordmark that liquid paint flows over as the cursor moves, built from images and shaders.

What it does

A spiky blackletter wordmark rendered as glossy black chrome with blue reflections; as the cursor moves, electric-blue liquid paint flows and drips over the letters, then recedes. The author's chain was inspiration boards, then Figma Weave for static images and 3D, then Claude to build it, shaders included. An agent renders the wordmark with an image model (or an image-to-3D step), layers WebGL passes (fluid ink trail, chromatic tint, specular sweep), scripts a virtual cursor path so the interaction survives as video, and frames it as a landing-page capture; Paper Shaders' Liquid Metal is a shortcut for simpler marks.

Status

A format people ask for that has no dedicated skill yet. Make it with the skills on the use-case pages below, or with varg directly.

How an agent would make it: Wordmark brief → image-model render (or image-to-3D) → WebGL fluid, chromatic and specular passes → scripted cursor path → HyperFrames screen-style render

Models it drives: nano_banana_2_1, gpt_image_2_5, render
