Monster Moray

I'm incredibly proud to present my Mentorship Project from Think Tank Training Centre!
.
For my final project, I set out to create something truly wild—an elaborate, transparent Sea Beast designed from the inside out, based on a concept by Antonio J. Manzanedo. To bring it to life, I studied deep-sea anatomy, ensuring scientific accuracy while pushing the limits of Look Development. This project was also my first dive into Houdini, where I learned the Karma renderer, developed an animated groom, and created procedural tileable scales in Substance Designer, integrating them seamlessly into ZBrush displacement. It was a massive technical and artistic challenge, but one that reinforced my love for creature creation.
