Reference collage. Direction was "bug like, medical injection devices, sci-fi," and most importantly "cool but a little creepy".

Color Exploration. The company heads wanted it to instantly read as a medical device, so having the majority of the body be white was important.

I had a blast making this Dream device, which uses legs to find its position behind the neck, and then inject a reality warping mixture into the brain and nervous system that allows users to step into another dimension. I was responsible for the entire design process, from concept design to final 3D model and textures.
