Cephalopod Queen

Four hours of sculpting in Sculptris (Competition entry at The Gathering, two years ago)
Recently picked it up again, made a lowpoly, spent some time texturing, and suddenly had something worth showing off!

My only regret is not giving her a blue-ringed octopus skin ;_;

Textured in 3DCoat, rendered in Cycles

Final render

Render + Wireframe

Initial Sculptris sculpt, ~4 hours

First texture pass

Basic PBR

Turntable

Simple yet super-efficient glass refraction setup, rendered twenty to forty times faster than using a default glass material for the lens, at the cost of no caustics
