What could be more fun than a scoop of ice cream on Halloween? Perhaps one that has developed a mind of its own!

Inspired by the supernatural comedy of Ghostbusters and the wonderfully bizarre creatures of iconic cartoons by the same name. Who you gonna call when dessert starts staring back?

The character was created using MetaHuman. The ice cream was sculpted in ZBrush and textured in Substance 3D Painter, where I developed custom Smart Materials for the cream and chocolate. Maya was used to separate and repurpose character geometry, including an eye and a hand, for the concept. The top was created in Marvelous Designer, with its materials refined in Unreal Engine 5.7, where the final image was rendered. Adobe Photoshop was used for final texture refinement, sharpening, and subtle lighting enhancements to the eyes.

Sweet, spooky, and definitely not recommended as a midnight snack. Happy Halloween!
