A
Bug's Death was done just for fun in my spare time, i imagined a scene that
a spider would be playing around with it's food,
in this case the poor bee, when it was done i was trying to find a good name
for the image and this joke with A Bug's Life, one of
my favorite Pixar movies, came to my mind and i decided to make the logo joke.
Hope they don't sue me for this ;)
Well i drawed the logo by my self, anyways.
Used 3dsmax and MentalRay for rendering, i used a camera shader to achieve
the distorted lens effect,
3dsmax hair for the spider and turned to mesh as the camera shader does not
understand the hair plugin
and for that i decided to use painted hair plates for the bee's hair. Foliage
just behind the character are
3D, and far BG is a photo I shot.
