I created this scene entirely in Maya, around the year 2010 / 2011.
I wanted a Wallpaper for my Windows back then and I wanted something that was created by me, so I thought to create a frog in a beautiful lake / watery area with stones included.

Everything was modeled in Maya.
Textured was handpainted in Mudbox, then back to Maya for Rigging the frog, and final, the Rendering was done in Mental Ray ( Maya )
