So this is my most recent assignment. Again, we were given the model and we had to texture it. This was supposed to be photorealistic, but I don’t think I quite managed it. The problem I have is that while I can see all of the various color shifts, I don’t yet know how to render them. I used a beetle photo on Pinterest as my main inspiration. You can see my beetle on SketchFab:

Of all the assignments we’ve had this term, I have to say that this was my least favorite. I think that’s because the model is so mechanistic-looking and we were supposed to render it realistic looking. It’s very hard to get that model to look real.
