Curiosities Cabinet of a French missionary back from Vietnam

This project was our end of 1rst-year final exam! Done in 3 weeks, end of May and start of June 2019.
We had to conceive, model and texture an entire cabinet of curiosities, set before the 19th century, with the subject free of choice.
I chose to imagine the cabinet of a French missionary, living with a wife, in an ornamented apartment in Paris, France. The French missionary would have recently returned from a mission in Vietnam, and had brought back many trinkets and curiosities for him to collect and study in his cabinet, showcased openly in his living room for his guests to see!
