Playing with the Fishies
3D Render by RhiblesSummertime fun makes me think of being a little girl again, and pretending I'm a mermaid in the ocean as I swim around the pool and pretend I can talk to the fish. So, that directly inspired this piece - a mermaid, playing with some fish!
Lots of fun playing with lighting (which is my favourite thing to do), and some tedious placement of fishies and bubbles, but I'm really happy with the piece overall. Especially her little fishie friend poking out from behind her tail.
I've uploaded my wireframes to show the different lights used, I tried to use a sort of forced perspective to give some depth, so that was something new for me, but overall really enjoyed working on this.

Wed, Jul 22Thankyou! 
I had lots of fun with the lighting, changing it around to get the shadows I wanted. Was a lot of fun to work on.

Tue, Sep 08Thankyou! It was a lot of trial and error with them and the instancing (which I kept breaking) but I'm happy with how they turned out, and I learnt lots too which was really cool!
