This piece is a recreation of an asset I originally created several years ago. The first version aimed for realism, but looking back, it definitely showed that I was a novice. I decided to revisit the concept and reimagine it with a more stylized approach, focusing on stronger shapes, cleaner modeling, and a more cohesive overall design.
In addition to rebuilding the asset, I created a turntable animation to showcase it in motion. The animation includes subtle up-and-down movement for the balloon, along with simple bird models flying past to add life and atmosphere to the scene.
