Side by side of Amelia together with her wireframe self. Oh and here she‘s got her pilot jacket on! . The wireframe shows you how the model looks like when I optimize it for the game. The more polygons there are, the more performance is needed from your computer to display & move it. . While during sculpting, Amelia was made out of multiple millions of polygons, I „boiled“ it down to a few thousand during optimization. It would be possible to have even less but that would give problems when animating her, and also lose some details. . #airheartgame #blindflugstudios #steam #earlyaccess #steamearlyaccess #steamgame #computergame #pcgame #gameart #3DArt #wip #3DArtWIP #cgArt #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #swissgames #instagame #zurich #kreis4 #madewithmodo #polycount #3dmodel #zbrush #characterart #3dcharacter #madewithsubstance #substancepainter #makingof (at Zürich, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BhH0JkfhMf9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wdh5oma5q0df

Time-lapse of the sculpt of #airheartgame hero Amelia. . Faces can look pretty ugly when something small doesn‘t fit. It‘s kind of complicated to see what it is and to change it without breaking something different. I think in the end I moved the eyebrows down for the final version, but that was done in another software. . The last photo is the mesh for the game with hard normals. I didn‘t use any normal mapping for the clothes of the final game character, only for the face. . Tech stuff: sculpted in ZBrush, Retopo in Modo . . . #blindflugstudios #steam #earlyaccess #steamearlyaccess #steamgame #computergame #pcgame #gameart #3DArt #wip #3DArtWIP #cgArt #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #swissgames #instagame #zurich #kreis4 #madewithzbrush #polycount #3dmodel #zbrush #characterart #3dcharacter #pixologic #time-lapse #timelapse (at Zürich, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bg16lush55K/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1b8atgsdg2yzk

The 3D model of Amelia is based on a sculpt I did in my free time; a model of Bulma from Dragon Ball. . To adjust it a bit to the style we had for Cloud Chasers I put her into Modo together with the younger Amelia, and adjusted her slightly. . The biggest difference of Amelias final body was the size of her head. It‘s not as big as the one of younger Amelia, but slightly bigger than Bulma‘s head. . The Bulma model was based on an illustration by an artist called pomodorosa. . . . #airheartgame #cloudchasersgame #blindflugstudios #steam #earlyaccess #steamearlyaccess #steamgame #computergame #pcgame #gameart #3DArt #wip #3DArtWIP #cgArt #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev #swissgames #instagame #zurich #kreis4 #madewithzbrush #polycount #3dmodel #zbrush #characterart #3dcharacter #dragonball #bulma (at Zürich, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/BgyqBuLBt4z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11hfyw78zdtfj

Concept art for Amelia to find out which outfit and hairstyle we wanted for her. . I sculpted a rough version of her anatomy / proportions in 3D beforehand, rendered it and painted over it in Photoshop. . The left one of the first picture is Amelia Earhart inspired, the left one of the second picture is the one we chose for the game. It shows both mechanic - pilot sides of her the best. . . . #airheartgame #blindflugstudios #airheart #steam #earlyaccess #steamearlyaccess #steamgame #computergame #pcgame #gameart #photoshop #wip #indiegame #indie #indiegamedev #gamedev #swissgames #zurich #kreis4 #polycount #characterart #conceptart #characterconcept #wacom #cintiq #concept #heroine #pilot #ameliaearhart (at Zürich, Switzerland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bgt8z1DhohZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6xbro4ra8lzj
