Pixiu,Chinese Figure- ArtifactModelingChallengee

3D Model

Hey, this is my contribution to the Ancient Artifacts 3D Modelling Challenge here. Pixiu (Chinese: 貔貅; pinyin: píxiū; Wade–Giles: P’i-hsiu), is a Chinese mythical hybrid creature, commonly (but incorrectly) referred to in the West by the Greek word “chimera”, and considered a powerful protector of practitioners of Feng Shui. These figures were often made of jade. I tried to show light jade with weathering and inclusions.
