Explorer Of New Worlds- Competition WIP-08

sketchfab

My eighth submission for the "Explorer of new worlds" competition (http://forum.humster3d.com/showthread.php?tid=76) is an experimental texture study for a Giant Sand-Worm, inspired by Frank Herbert's iconic Shai-Hulud from Dune. This model will likely hold little significance for those unfamiliar with the source material or its visual representations. However, it serves as a starting point to refine my modeling skills, particularly in detailing the intricate inner mouth of this formidable creature. I created this texture study by extracting surface data from a pineapple model found here: https://skfb.ly/CNsT and then extruding fangs from their central points before flattening the resulting surface. The original model had an excessive polygon count, so I remeshed it to reduce its complexity.
