Lizard Guy with Gem
This was sketched out in 123D Creature for iPad, then arranged, rendered and composited in Blender3D. I took the background from a zoo photo and modeled the crystal and rock in Blender. For the forest canopy shadows on the character, I took the same background, desaturated it, converted the white into an alpha channel and mapped it to a couple of planes which I aligned to a sun lamp as a gobo. Project took about an hour and a half. My only complaint about the 123D app is that it doesn't allow you to overlay a reference image for modeling. Other than that, it's a great tool for creating nearly complete concept creatures very quickly.
About Me
I am well-versed in many popular graphics platforms, such as Illustrator, Photoshop, Blender3D and After Effects, and have a natural eye for design, CG and illustration. I am also interested in video editing projects, soundtracking and sound design.
