🏆 Best of Term – Texturing & Shading (Fall 2025)
Student Artwork By: Sam Menezes
Set in a still, intimate workspace, Sam's scene tells its story through carefully chosen objects rather than characters. This was Sam's first time using XGen hair & fur systems and #marvelousdesigner. He leaned into experimentation, and developed a confident approach to the final piece.
Congratulations, Sam!
