Weekly Drills 044 - #FishTank

This week we want you to create a project of a fish tank, then simply tag it #RookiesWeeklyDrills and #FishTank.

My first ever 3D project I created was a fish tank. My mind was blown from the moment I extruded those glass walls and watched how the glass refracted in my raytraced rendering. So this week, I want you to have a crack at creating your own fish tank. If you have time, attempt an entire tank, or why not just create some plants, coral, castle or even a little scuba diver. It entirely up to you to see how far you can push yourself in a short amount of time.

To get some feedback on your work-in-progress project before you submit it, head over to Discord channel and chat with other artists having a crack. To see all the Weekly Drill projects just follow this link.

I wanted to do a different spin on a traditional Fish Tank, especially since I love Finding Nemo/Dory and Dory got transported in a coffee pot like this in the movie.
