What wonders await beneath the waves? This week we challenge you to model some low poly sea life, upload it to Sketchfab, and tag it #LPSeaLifeChallenge.

UPDATE: Winner – The Shallow, The Plateau, and the Deep by biramadoni

Rules

• Use your favorite software and workflow to create a scene of 3D sea life.

• Submit only new work, but feel free to submit multiple entries.
