Mech-Animal: Tiger

Hard-surface sculpt modeled and textured in Maya

This sculpt shows my ability to transform an elegant and organic creature, a tiger, into a mechanic version with strictly hard-surfaces and a stark lack of organic shapes.

The Story

Here I am showing my ability to create an intricate hard-surface model from the inspiration of a very soft, organic creature. My challenge here was to keep the shape language of a muscly tiger body that flows throughout, while showing their stripes in a unique way. I chose to show the stripes as negative space that shows off the intricate gear mechanisms inside.
