In this video I breakdown the cinematic re-creation of my four closest items: A HydroFlask, caligraphy pen, pocket knife and bone-conduction headphones.

We'll talk about using reference, modeling, subdivision modeling, texturing, surface imperfections, lighting and rendering.

At the end of the video I challenge you guys to create something yourself! The winners will recieve all four items plus my surface imperfection pack.
