Mermaid WIP

The character I'm currently working on. For the most part done in Zbrush, unwrapping the low poly now. 

Her overall low (not including the buoy, which is an environmental, not part of her "clothing" is sitting at just over 8k quads, or 16k tris. While I expect to lower that -some-... Most of the polys are there because I want them there, so im not sure how low it'll get. Her body alone is 11,000 tris, her hair is 1,300, the ropes are just over 3k... Bracelet, skirt, and conch are a couple hundred each


Get her pose pretty much locked down

And now with some lighting and her normals


Mason

A more realistic character to take a break from the stylized streak.

I had some leftover inspiration from looking the the CreatureBox for my monster, and ended up designing a robot of my own.

And then I remembered I had a blog

Sorry about that. I've been updating my site with new stuff, but forgot about other venues. Remedying that now.

Arenanet Character Test

I came across this Arenanet Art Test awhile ago, and though it's no longer open, I liked the character and wanted to try my hand at producing a 3D model off it. The restrictions were 7500 tris, and 2048x2048 texture maps. My model came in at 7497 tris, I ended up using Diffuse, Normal, Alpha, Spec, and Gloss. The shots were captured in Marmoset.
