Reference collage. Direction was "bug like, medical injection devices, sci-fi," and most importantly "cool but a little creepy".
Final model and texture turnaround
Silhouette exploration. Drug delivery method brainstorming notes.
Company heads liked the base of skull ideas. So here are more silhouette ideas.

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.
