Create a 3D Golden Scarab Beetle Model in Cinema 4d // The Practice 174

This week we created a golden scarab beetle model in cinema 4d. Insects are fascinating and complex to model, but this one was made fairly easy by utilizing the scale options in the leg sweeps, and by using hair to model additional detail below the shell. It was a ton of fun creating the reflective golden material for the shell. The Practice is an improvised recording of my creative process in Cinema 4d, Photoshop and other digital art applications. Posted every Tuesday. Watch me work on illustrations, animations, 3d models and digital art. I also take questions from visitors and chat about design, art, techniques and the industry at large.   / dlgnce   |   / dlgnce   http://diligence.studio
