Here’s my first attempt at modeling and texturing Odilon Redon’s “Cactus Man”. I failed to capture the original’s likeness - the facial and body proportions are off and the head isn’t round enough - but I think the resulting creature was worth sharing. It’s also high time I stopped lurking and started participating here 🙂

I’m planning to use Redon’s artwork and creatures in an animated short.
