My animation of the happy little squirrel from the course ‘Alive‘ by Pierrick Picaut.

A treehouse I modelled in Blender and textured in substance painter. It’s made almost completely from just one single object that I modelled into a plank to start with and then simply resized and duplicate for different sections (making sure to add some changes to the objects to avoid any repetition in shape).
