I’ve started texturing Morrigan in 3DCoat. I really love how well it works with Photoshop, it’s super convenient for my workflow 🌛 I still need to finish her clothes and the smaller details. I’ll also paint the feathers on planes, just like I did with the transparent leaves for Sebille. After that, I’ll start rigging her and figure out how to animate her :D

This is what the 3D model looks like at the moment✨ Next, I'll work on the UVs, bake the high-poly details, and start texturing. I'll add the round decorations as separate objects after I finish texturing 🦎 I'm still learning and improving my retopology workflow. After I finish Morrigan, I'll make my next character full-body and retopologize the entire body. It will most likely be my own drow character from BG3. It'll be a good opportunity to practice male anatomy as well :}

I made some updates to Morrigan's face, resculpted her hair, and started the head retopology 🌛✨ I'm planning to create the feathers on her shoulder armor with alpha textures, and I'll also refine the necklace to make it look a bit cleaner because it catches the eye a little more than I'd like haha. Next update should include the completed retopology for the entire model, and hopefully some texturing progress as well if I have time ^^

Still working on Morrigan's sculpt. This is how she's looking so far :> Next, I'll finish refining the details and then move on to retopology 🍀

Finished blocking out the main forms. She's looking a bit rough for now, haha, but next I'll start refining the meshes and bringing her closer to her final look.

I sketched Morrigan for my 3D challenge. I cropped out the lower half on purpose so I wouldn't be tempted to sculpt her hands XD The plan is to sculpt her, retopologize the model, paint the textures, rig her, and then make a head animation, probably using blend shapes, but we'll see. I've also been obsessing over the idea of making myself a beautiful elven dagger using paper, water, glue, and foil. I'll let that idea simmer for a while. If it refuses to leave me alone.. I'll probably have to give it a try 🐸

Drew a few sketches as creature drawing practice. I enjoyed this anime so much that I decided to watch it for a second time^^

ArtStation

Sketched a character I really liked from the anime I’m currently watching🐸

Continuing my work on Leliana, added some armor elements. Next I’m planning to pose her and fully refine the details. And the moment I started painting the polypaint, her expression became even kinder. I’m drifting further and further away from the original idea from my own sketch XD

Work in progress on my 3D model of Leliana. Started sculpting the face and blocked out the main shapes. Next I’ll move on to refining the details. (Her expression in the sketch looks pretty sly, so we’ll see how it turns out in the end 🤣)

Sketched Leliana 🌸 I’m going to sculpt her next, paint her in polypaint, and make a render :> Taking a little break from the full pipeline of retopo and texturing until my next 3D model.

Sketched him 🍀 Thanks to my sisters haha Also, my left eye finally got better and I feel so energized, I can see everything again👾 I have so many ideas and I hope I can bring some of them to life this spring!

I finally finished him!✨ The animation turned out very simple, but I’m really glad I brought it to the end (my PC was struggling even with this, haha) Now I can clearly see what could be improved, so I’m taking notes and will apply that knowledge to future models. Rigging and animation took me way longer than I expected, but I hope it’ll get easier with practice. I also made a mistake along the way. I tried to upgrade the rig and added extra bones to the joints to achieve more complex rotations, but I rushed into it and ended up spending a lot of time fixing things, lol. I’ll continue my little challenge, and next I’m planning to make a model of Morrigan from Dragon Age. I was choosing between her and Leliana for a long time, but I’ll probably just sketch Leliana as well since I love her too… or maybe even make a simple bust with polypaint, we’ll see. I’d also love to make a model of one of the Vocaloids, but I can’t decide between Gumi and Yuma… the struggle is real XD But first, I want to work on a full illustration with a background to practice more narrative scenes. And I’ll keep working on reference sheets for my characters as well. That’s the plan for now 🦎 ArtStation

Did a first pass of baking the textures and playing around with shape keys a bit XD Still need to polish the textures, fix some artifacts, figure out the animation, sculpt the base, and then the model will be done✨

Almost done with the retopology stage👀 I decided to completely redo the hair, so it will still change. Here’s how the body topology looks. Tomorrow evening I’ll finish working on the hair and finally start texturing, yay!:> then move on to rigging.
