This is Waxen, the toy elephant that can put out fires. The design for this character was made by my team-mate, Mackenzie Box. Where the modelling and animation was fun and quite simple, the majority of the challenge for this model came from making the shader and particle-effect in Unreal Engine. It was definitely something new to me, and I learned quite a bit from working on this little guy!
