Macro Chronograph Watch

1280 x 1024 pixels

This FOB watch was part of a series of macro models I made during my second semester in 2023. What really drew me to create this model was the lighting of the scene the complexity of the watch gears. This image is based on a photograph by Lucas Santos.

This project was modelled in Maya, textured in Substance Painter, and rendered in Arnold. I subD modelled the case and majority of the watch face, but the watch gears were smooth and unsmoothed depending on the type. I used splines to curve the numbers around the watch face, to keep the spacing in between the numerals as even as possible.
