VIZA 644
For this course I was hoping to create a finished digital maquette in the hyper-realistic style of a fantasy character and her mount in Maya and ZBrush. The final product will be a 3D model and turntable of that model.
My focus for this project will be to create an engaging form and vibrant pose for the sculpture.
I will prepare some preliminary sketches to investigate form and emotion in the characters. Once a concept has been decided upon, further sketches into history and anatomy will be done. I will then block out major forms then sculpt at the higher levels until no more detail can be achieved. I will then move on to a finer level of detail an continue until done.
The purpose of this project is to fully explore the nuances of form through sculpture.
