This is my project for the class "Into the Ocean: Character Sculpting Essentials in Blender 3D" by John Knowles.

I sculpted the sea horse character in Blender.

I decided to name her Melody (the baby sea horse). I set up the scene to match the storytelling that inspired my project. Melody is traveling with her mom, embarking on a dangerous journey into the unknown, beyond where coral reefs have misteriously started to die. They must uncover the truth of what is causing this. But it won't be easy. They will face many dangers, but they are the reef's only hope.

I used the techniques that I learned during the course to sculpt the rocks, the corals, and the sea horses. The scene is kept dark to match the storytelling of diving into an unknown and dangerous world. The corals become more scarce as they get closer to the rock formation.

Thank you so much, professor Knowles. Your "Into the Ocean" series has been the perfect motivation to dive deeper into Blender and learn more about character design and creation. I love the theme of the courses and the projects. Looking forward to continue learning more.
