What would a sudden drastic improvement of quality in an artist's Blender portfolio indicate? He (or she) is not new to 3D arts and finally got the hang of Blender! Welcome to the club!

How, then, can you too qualify for this award? Please have in mind that this award is reserved for those that are on par with or that excel top-notch works published by artists and studios. If such work does not appear during a given week, this award is not being given to anyone. So please submit your best work to www.blenderartist.org or to the Member's Gallery of this site, or Contact Us to show where your work is available on the internet. It doesn't have to be a Blender render, Eevee or Cycles. Any other render engine is fine as long as Blender was used as a part of your workflow.

So, it is with great pleasure that www.BlenderNews.org introduces to you the winner of the Render of the Week Award for the week of February 28, 2022: Satyaki Mandal.

Artist's Comment
About Me: 
I am Satyaki Mandal. I am from India. I am very passionate about 3D and I take special interest in 3D environment design. I have been using Blender since 2016.
Its currently my main software for everything related to 3D.
 
About "Humpback Whale:"
This started as a sculpting exercise but eventually ended up as an underwater rendering challenge for me. The texturing is done in Substance Painter.
Also I give special thanks to Polyfjord’s youtube channel for the caustics..
