The above is one of the favourite CG images I have produced to date, even though the geometry is fairly basic. The wooden bear featured is a Caligari trueSpace reconstruction of an actual toy I had as a child, and that I have kept to this day. A great deal of time was spent on developing the multi-material shaders to give the impression of slightly aged, varnished wood. The tarnished metal rods and eyelets that allow the arms, legs and head to move also required significant attention. The completed bear was rendered sitting on an infinite mirror amid a fairly dense volumetric fog and rendered at 2000x1500 before being cropped into landscape.
