The project follows an amazing initiative of the Museum on their journey of digitizing over 80 million items.
We have selected 20 specimens from the Museum's collection and created a pack of 3D Adobe Stock models, which can be downloaded and used for free here: https://stock.adobe.com/collections/rTMsIExGHtyXsAv8NL8RfOxokqALHQhy
The first part of the project included a creative challenge on Artstation:

Next, I have taken one of the insects from the pack and took it as far as I could in the creative sense. I've picked 3 different art directions, as shown bellow.
