Technical notes
 
Modeling: Nothing special to say, it's a simple model all done using subpatch in Modo.
What lacks: Nothing, it's perfect for me.
Notes: I put all my effort in materials! I used only two bitmaps, one for the eyes and one for the purple spot on the shell. All the rest is done using weight maps and gradients. For example I used a weight map to define the area in which the body is green. Another weight map has been used to remove the bump from the eyes.
Biggest problem: Nothing special except a few attention in using all the different weight maps.
