Deep Sea Discovery Creatures
This project started with a collection of lively hand sketches — imaginative sea creatures waiting to come to life in 3D. My task was to translate those drawings into detailed digital models and expressive renders.
The biggest challenge was finding the right balance between realism and a playful cartoon style, while preserving the personality and emotion captured in each original sketch.
Working alongside Envoi Design Studio, we refined every aspect — from the subtle flow of hair and the texture of the skin to the poses that gave each character its unique attitude.
The models were created in Modo, with texture maps developed in Photoshop to achieve the final look and feel.
