Make the perfect tiger with Maya

Using Software: Maya

First, introduce

Photos are always my inspiration, and I especially like the photographs of nature and wildlife, such as National Geographic, that are filmed in magazines. On a recent trip I went to South East, Asia, where I visited the Sriracha Tiger Zoo in Thailand, where I took a large number of animals living here, and these references are extremely useful in the creation of personal works.

There are more than 100.000 crocodile farms, elephants and, of course, tigers, and I've never seen so many Bengal tigers (over 200 heads) in the same place.

In all my previous 3D models, I never tried to create a very realistic work. I also intend to prepare for future animations, which is why I want to make basic low modulus and render high modulus.

I use MAYA8.5 modeling, Mentalray rendering, textures created using Photoshop, and the hair on the tiger head is done using shave and haircut this plugin.
