Built this a while back, is a pumpkin, modeled and textured within in C4D using Octane materials. So will only work with octane properly.I built it for a personal halloween project, at the time I did create a smoke simulation to go with it, but have not included that in this project.
Attached is the render I created when I first made the project, with lighting and smoke, that was all rendered in Octane, the lighting came from Mitch Myers free lighting pack (not included).
Also are a few renders with various lighting to show what you too can accomplish.
