Hey guys, here is a creature piece I've been working on. The organic forms and wing poses were sculpted in ZBrush before moving to Maya for retopo and rendering. Although I carefully sculpted the muscle forms based on animal anatomy, almost none of it is visible once the feathers were added (´д｀;)
Hey everyone, just sharing the texturing work on my latest project. I used Substance Painter to try and get a soft, semi-realistic sheen on the different feather types.
(Total feather count: 6,633)
Just sharing my latest personal piece. I worked on both the initial 2D concept design and the final 3D production using Maya, ZBrush, Substance Painter, and Arnold.
The rolling clouds were designed to mimic the flowing patterns of Karesansui (dry landscape gardens) to evoke an atmosphere of wabi-sabi.
