Bug render - basics of sculpting

[Stephen_Jenkins]

I decided to flex my compositing muscles.

Here’s the node graph. I used two view layers, one with just the bug, another with a plane for the water reflections. Added the environment lighting from the first layer (HDRI) to the bug and reflections from the second.

After uploading the previous post I decided the bug looks a bit out of place with the lighting of the background, so removed the 3-point lighting and just went with HDRI.

Great solutions.
