This piece awarded me first place in the Creative Assembly 3D art contest in 2014. The prize was a one year internship at their headquarters in Horsham - United Kingdom.

The notorious Julius Caesar rendered in Marmoset Toolbag2. He is proud with his victories and achievements, in this case, the vastness of the Roman Empire. He was known for being a severe general and emperor, but in this CG version, he can't really hold his emotions, hence the big smile and the celebration pose. The floor with the map of Europe depicts the Roman Empire of 44BC, the year of Julius assassination. The rattlesnakes on the floor symbolize the pitfalls of his success, the treachery and all the conspiracies that were slowly bubbling up with the growth of Julius's ego.
