Description

Another insect for my series, this being the Goliath beetle which is one of the largest insects in nature (up to 6 inches in length). Modeled in Cinema 4D R8.1, textured with Bodypaint R1 using scanns from a wonderful book, NVIDIA dev. tex. for the wood, and my own leaf textures. Rendered using Dosch HDRI Nature probes for lighting. Thank you for viewing!

Nice one Dez! Well textured, but I'd throw that background more out of focus though.

Thank you everyone! I had good reference material for this bug and I used scanns which I worked with to get the rich texture. About the DOF, it may seem slight, but but that's because part of the background are models.
