Who is Monstro Labs?
MONSTRO LABS is a Portland entertainment studio building original and branded stories around characters and creatures. We shoot real-world footage and bring CG creatures into it until you can't tell where one ends and the other begins.
Every creature is imagined, painted and built by human hands. We use AI only for the technical side, the pipeline, tools and planning that used to be out of reach for a small studio, so more of our time goes into the craft.

Meet the creature
We rendered this creature in Houdini and trained it into a Gaussian splat, so you can circle it, lean in close and study it from every angle, like a specimen on your desk.
Click it to wake it up. Drag to orbit, scroll to zoom. Move your cursor away and it goes back to sleep so the page keeps scrolling.
