We designed high-quality 3D sneakers for the NFT project "Cannaverse." Inspired by the brand’s space aircraft theme, we incorporated futuristic design elements that align with this vision. The sneakers were crafted with production feasibility in mind, ensuring they could be manufactured in the future. The overall design reflects the essence of a spaceship and speed, embodied in a bold, chunky silhouette.
The standout features are the bold metallic shape which represents speed, a central design element, and the chunky sole that evokes the power and form of a futuristic spaceship.
Project Workflow
1. Concept & Sneaker Sketches
Sketched bold, futuristic silhouettes inspired by spacecrafts and speed. Idea was to make it feel like a spaceship.
At the core of the design lies a bold metallic form symbolizing speed and motion, paired with a chunky, spaceship-inspired sole that grounds the sneaker in Cannaverse’s futuristic vision.
2. Base Modeling & Retopo in Blender
Built the sneaker’s core form based on sketch and optimized topology for clean geometry.
3. Texturing in Substance Painter
Applied PBR materials with metallics, fabrics, and Cannaverse-inspired detailing.
4. Campaign Trailer Production
Added layered panels, vents, and chunky sole geometry, along with cool stickers for a Gen-Z vibe plus subtle Cannaverse and space elements.
5. Rendering in Blender cycles
Rendered in Blender Cycles with studio-grade lighting, highlighting every detail of the sneaker.
