"Endeering" is a short film with a specific low-poly style in mind. Designing Leif and translating his design to a 3D model was a very rewarding challenge. Leif is a majestic deer with a beautiful posture and in order to keep with the stylized form it was drawn several times using different geometrical shapes and colors.
Leif's anatomy was pushed to not look like a realistic deer and for the final model, it was decided that his front be tear-drop shaped with a circle for his back. He was to have huge and incredible antlers, and skinny long legs.
