🎃HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 🎃
The cumulative effort of an entire month and at least three days of crying as I struggled to model a box in Blender (I cannot overstate how terrible I am with 3D), the help of my wonderful fiancé for doing the final renders (my poor PC couldn’t handle them!) and a lot of sleepless nights, I present the
CEREAL MONSTERS!
General Mills' Monster Cereal mascots, designed in the Monster High Skullector style! I envision them as being scented, and I'm not sure if I managed to correctly illustrate but the cover for the box is a 'slide' cover over the main box, so you can open it without damaging it haha.
Originally completed in 2020, I only managed the three main monsters but I always thought I’d come back and finally finish this project to a level I’d be happy with, and then I got the idea of actually modelling the boxes and it sort of snowballed from there 😅
(On a final note, I’m Australian so ironically I’ve never tasted ANY of these cereals, we don’t get them here! I have my extensive reading of i-mockery during my high school years to thank for that 💕)Click the spoilers under each one to see all the extra details (didn't want the post to be too confusing to navigate or cause loading issues due to number of images haha) :heart:

Frute Brute haha, I didn’t get the chance to draw her originally but I’m so glad I got to this time around! I really love how her design turned out, those sherbet-coloured stripes are just so up my alley 😅💕

Our final ghoul and the only one whose box doesn’t match, as all of their boxes are based off of their first release and Yummy Mummy here released in 1988 when the boxes were all done in this style! She’s another I’m very proud of as its’ more difficult than you’d think to turn just bandages into an actual outfit! 😅
Aand that's all! I hope you guys enjoy them, this was the biggest personal project I've ever completed and I am quite proud of it haha!
