This is a 3D animation of a large adult Timber rattlesnake (*Crotalus horridus*) from New England Reptile Distributors (https://new-england-reptile.myshopify.com/). 

The raw photogrammetry scan was created using the Beastcam Technology, and the ventral side was added from a different snake.  The full model was retopologized and rigged by animator Daniel Daye from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

The 3D model was created with the Beastcam technology.

Model 31A - Timber Rattlesnake

This is an animation of an subadult Atlantic Sturgeon.

This 3D model is a composite of images from a subadult Atlantic Sturgeon  (Acipenser oxyrhynchus oxyrhynchus) housed at the Maymont Nature Center (https://maymont.org/animals/nature-center/), and a scan from a preserved Atlantic Sturgeon from the Natural History Collection at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (https://bcrc.bio.umass.edu/nhc/home).

Model 66A - Atlantic Sturgeon

This is a 3D model of a male of the jumping spider Habronattus pyrrithrix. CG artist Johnson Martin created this model in Blender using photos, video, and a CT-scan. Nate Morehouse from the University of Cincinnati and Beth Jakob, Skye Long and Daniel Daye from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst provided access to photos, videos, and specimens.  Philip Steinhoff from the Uhl Lab at the University of Greifswald allowed us to use a CT-scan to recreate the body mesh. CG artist Jer Bot helped with creation of the 3D body mesh.

Creation of this model was supported by an NSF grant to Nate Morehouse at the University of Cincinnati (NSF IOS-1734291).

Model 63A - Jumping Spider - Resting pose

This is an animation of a house gecko (Hemidactylus platyurus) photo-captured with the Beastcam MACRO live in the Irschick lab at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. Mass is 4.6 grams. CGI artist Johnson Martin retopologized and reconstructed the gecko from images captured with the Canon G16 cameras. We partnered with Cameron Siler from the University of Oklahoma and Tony Gamble from Marquette University to create this model, which they will use for testing models of predation and gliding in geckos.  Creation of this model was supported by NSF grant 1657662.

Model 67A - Largemouth Bass

This is a 3D model (“Tumbleweed”) of a juvenile Kemps Ridley Sea Turtle (ID 132) (*Lepidochelys kempii*) that was initially rescued by the New England Aquarium in Massachusetts, and then photographed with the Beastcam technology with 30 Canon G16 cameras. The sea turtle was released soon after in the Southern United States in good condition. The 3D model was initially created through a photogrammetry scan using Capturing Reality.  We digitally scrubbed the ID tag on the shell.

Animator Robert Gutierrez used Blender to reconstruct the full sea turtle from these scans, as well as animate the movements. Jeanette Wyneken from Florida Atlantic University, and Connie Merigo from the New England Aquarium each provided feedback on the movements.

Model 70A - Bluegill

Stairs and eroded slipway/jetty at the east end of Custom House, London.

"An earlier phase of the causeway is visible half way down the foreshore - previously partly hidden under the cambered concrete causeway until it broke up. The earlier phase aligns to the true end of the stair. The current granite setts were added to raise the level on the foreshore and the stair passes underneath the setts." - The City of London Archaeological Society (@COLAS_London).

On the river wall above the stairs is a parish boundary engraving for St Dunstan in the East and All Hallows by the Tower with the date: 1819.

1727 photos taken in January 2019 with a Sony a6000 and processed in Reality Capture.
