Ring Tailed Lemur - His Dark Materials S2

Last year I was lucky enough to be able to work on one of my favourite shows: His Dark Materials - Season 2 and helped create a Lemur Daemon with some talented friends at Framestore IA!
.
I worked on the Sculpt, Textures, Lookdev and Lighting of this little gal. The groom, lookdev and lighting were done in Arnold and Houdini and the textures were painted in Substance Painter and Mari.
.
The different groom shaders were assigned using hand painted probability maps in Houdini, assigning different shaders to different percentages of individual hair strands. It was so fun to recreate her ringed tail and vibrant orange eyes while watching hours of reference of these funny creatures.
.
The groom was done by the talented Stephen Goodson and Gabriela Salmeron, They also created our new groom parting system which really added some amazing realism to the fur. The model was done by Stephen Goodson, Animation by Laurent Benhamo and we were led by our keen-eyed creature supervisor Ahmed Gharraph!
.
Can't wait for season 3!
Enjoy
