-Revisiting the pelican case that was made for the XDS a few months back. Cleaning up geo and spinning off a larger variant.

Another session of armor exploration and commitment to shapes for the torso, shoulder and upper arms.

 This bad guy is finally starting to feel menacing.

Still a bit of refinement to go but for now I am going to shift focus to the boots and leggings to reinforce the work done on the torso.

Been getting my feet wet with more Marvelous Designer work and I wanted test a saran wrap like effect on a prop. The idea came to me at the store picking up a couple cases of water.

Tonight's quick exercise

I started by sculpting out a quick rock in zbrush, followed by decimation before unwrapping the low poly in maya.

 From there I brought the asset into painter and wrapped up not long after.

Refined the face a bit, spent some more time on armor exploration.

Speed sculpt for the night. Trying to break through that next threshold. 

Decided to take this vampire a bit further.

I often wonder what Tolkien's universe would have been like with a Vampire element. Imagine even further that these Vampires had a kingdom with a standing army. What would it look like?

Still roughing in ideas of potential shape language for the armour.

  

Update #1 // Armor work and thinking about prop placement.

 

Speed sculpt for the evening. Vampire inspired by a recent D&D game.

Here are some early renders for the XDS I began working on for my character.

Testing out the Springfield Armory logo for rendering. 

Messing around with magazine types.

What firearm would be complete without a proper case?

-Foundation elements for the drop down holster are in place minus one. The element that houses the firearm itself.

-Stand in mesh for scale

 -Current overall

Starting the weekend off with some character!

-Playing with different ideas for private, military, and police signage on the molle setup.

-Belt creation in Maya

-Created a fabric tile out of Substance

-Placement and detail pass in Zbrush

First pass on the gloves

Flow state was in full swing today // More progress

First detail pass on the boots

Its been a while since my last update and I found some time to jump into this project again. So here are some screens. Motivation is high as this character begins to take shape.
