INSPIRATION

I needed to create a self-project to reinforce my portfolio, so it was a problem for me. Listed below are some references I used to make it.

PROCESS

For the method, I went from Blender to ZBrush, again to Blender to create the property, retopology, UV mapping, and the ultimate render. I used Substance Painter for the textures.

I additionally utilized the Blender add-ons: BagaPie, Texel Density, and UV Pack Master.

MODELING

I made the block-out in Blender, then imported it into ZBrush for detailing and sprucing.

UV

That is an instance of the UV mapping for the physique solely.

I created a texture set for every asset, such because the wraps, quiver, and bow.

LIGHTING

The lighting was easy, with the character being the primary focus, I added the mandatory lights round him and a solar lamp for directional lighting within the scene. I additionally added a field with volumetrics for higher gentle bounces and to create a extra atmospheric surroundings.
