| | Inspiration Well I started out by having an idea for a wooden box and perhaps an ant or ladybug inside, kind of giving a perspective of what it would be like if you were a bug. Yet, as I began creating my ant/termite/ladybug it resulted into a mold of the 3 and hence, a new insect was created. This became my version of a termite, a more menacing, eats wood along with flesh if starving, in your attic termite. It’s time to call the Orchin man.

| | Problems and Solutions
The UV mapping of the textures presented the biggest problem for certain parts of the termites body. The Modeling wasn’t too difficult and therefore I wanted to focus on the textures of the termite in order to bring out a kind of realism to its basic shape. Basically trial and error on top of UV mapping tutorials helped solve my difficulties for the most part.
