I started this project as an organic modeling exercise in ZBrush and ended up being my first texturing and rendering project in Modo 401.
It soon became a challenge in terms of lighting and rendering. The model is relatively simple, so achieving the right mood through lighting and coloring was key to give the piece the tone I was looking for.
