Challenge prompt:
Create a crudely/clumsily made key.

So I created a key made from sticks held together with twine. Couldn't have the key without the lock. Completed in ~3 hours from start to finish.

Modelled: Maya
Textured: Substance Painter
Rendered: Marmoset 5

Adelaide Library, South Australia.
