Indian Rhino |
|
The hide of the Indian rhino looks like an armour, divided in shileds by enormous folds. As the skin is relatively thin in these folds, the hide can move in these areas. The hide of each shield is gain modelled in an extremely detailed way by netshaped drawings and small polygonal fields which are a little elevated.
