Conservyn' Mervyn
Mervyn's back! New look, new attitude, and big plans.
I had the great opportunity to work with Agency ETA and Long Beach Water to redesign their classic water droplet character.
The deliverables contain a beauty and shadow pass, with three different camera angles of 12 poses. The client can then generate numerous custom stills for use in social media and public outreach.
Character modeled, rigging and posed in Maya. Rendered using Redshift.
