Part of my annual Chinese Zodiac series, this character celebrates the 2023 Year of the Rabbit. The design merges traditional Chinese motifs with a contemporary plush toy aesthetic, creating a piece that's both culturally resonant and playfully approachable.
The character was technically crafted by modeling the core structure in Cinema 4D, while the realistic fabric texture was achieved through Marvelous Designer simulation. This approach allowed me to capture the soft, tactile quality of a collectible plush toy while maintaining precise control over the character's distinctive features and cultural elements.
