Couple of Ants!

[ShankarJ]

Hi all,
Happy New Year!
I had been working on to create a scene - a tree bark with moss and some ants.The reference picture was shot during my tour.

I have tried to replicate the objects and environment, though the lighting in the above picture was boosted with mobile app.

Here is my work in scene and final comp.The ants i took reference from the picture below and had a freedom of changing the appearance a little.

All elements are modeled in Blender
Shaders created inside Blender
Used HDRI from HDRIhaven
Light boost and color correction in Photoshop

Hey can you let me know on the shading and texturing you have used. I had a college minor project would be helpful if u could tell me the shading of the ants.

Hi Sravan, those are basic materials with gradient textures, little metallic value and some translucency
