Cute Monster

Personal project of a cute "monster" character (Oct. 2019)

Whole charcter is based on a little sketch I did while trying to come up with concrete ideas for another personal project. Kinda got stuck with this instead. My goal was to go through the whole workflow of sculpting something in high poly, baking out some maps (normal, cavity, ao), retopo, unwrapping, give it an albedo and paint in some stuff, rig it and roughly animate it.
The podium was a late idea. I wanted to paint a bit more and try some texture painting which creates kind of an optical illusion.
