TURN TABLE
Character Recreation
level 6 - sumative modelling project
The outline of this formative was to use an already existing character and recreating a 3D model of it, based off of selected 2D art style. I decided to recreate Bulbasaur from Pokemon in the from of Hearthstone. This meant recreating a cute, innocent character into a more detailed and over-exaggerated form.

Creation Process
My character was modelling using ZBrush and Maya, textured within ZBrush, before being retopped and UV unwrapped. My model has been imported into Maya and deemed renderable through appropriate Hyper shade assignments and light configuration. Renderman was used to produce the final show piece. Character was also rigged and animated in order to showcase the models potentail and my own skill set.
Rigging the Model
Extra curricular consisted of creating a fully functional and animation ready model, so rigging my model was the perfect way to show off the models capabilities.
Animation Showcase
Simple and quick animation sequence that shows the rig's capability and functionality.
