ARTWAR 2 | 3D | Sunrise Rooster Monk Girl | TommyGTeguh

TommyGTeguh 2018-01-30 13:34:53 UTC #1

Hey everyone! Into the fray a little late for ArtWar 2. I have about less than a month to go, so hopefully I will power through.

Joining the Light side is the Sunrise Rooster Monk, Xiao Lin Ling, pupil of the legendary master, Rooster Shifu.

Heavily inspired by Chinese fantasy and a personal take on my zodiac sign!

Below is my initial start and Concept:

This is awesome man. Great start man. I will be following this as I look forward to seeing more of this character. Love her face. Best of luck.

Nice! Already love the design! I'm really diggin' the feather shapes built into the skirts.

Thanks for the comments!

Blocked the rest of her character out, focusing on major silhouette reads (Will do a blockout of Rooster Shifu eventually!).

Often during this stage I sculpt with a pitch black material to avoid getting distracted by detail. I've made adjustments to her design after getting a feel of what works and what doesn't.

Generally moved things around, added and exaggerated elements of her attire that resonated with the keywords: Sunrise, Rooster and Monk.

<3 wanna see the final render looks pretty

malcom 2018-02-05 06:23:55 UTC #6

really nice block out. The proportions look great the silhouette is looking good as well.

@archsider @malcom Thank you!!

Going to post snippets of my sculpt schedule to keep myself accountable. Will be a close shave to make the deadline.

To do list for next update:
- Refine Shoes
- Work on Pants

TommyGTeguh 2018-02-06 16:41:53 UTC #8

Working my way from the ground up. Simple Chinese flats for shoes, and Rooster Tassels!

Aiming for game-res so its clean Primary and Secondary shapes for now, and then I'll paint in Tertiary details and decals during texturing.

malcom 2018-02-07 00:05:50 UTC #9

Nice folds. Nice and Clean sculpt so far as well.

TommyGTeguh 2018-02-10 15:24:42 UTC #10

Still building up the major forms. Switching things up and adding secondary shapes where it was feeling empty.

Increased the size of her twin tails to improve the head silhouette.

Gonna need the full weekend to keep my progress up before work starts again. : /

malcom 2018-02-11 01:37:50 UTC #11

Really clean work. Love the folds. I'm try to improve at that for my next character.

yaakov-weinstein 2018-02-27 01:00:26 UTC #12

This is so clever--the shapes are nice and stylized and pleasant to look at. Her silhouette is stunning and I love the rooster color pallete. Everything works in this. One thing I kinda thought of was it would be really cool to layer her hanging cloth thing to be more like individual feathers!
PS Those calves

TommyGTeguh 2018-02-27 17:01:05 UTC #13

@malcom @yaakov-weinstein Thank you so much! Cheers for following her progress.

Sorry for the lack of updates! Been busy with Lunar New Year and work recently, thank goodness for the extension. Currently doing Retopo.

I have upped the polish on several different areas, and also took out some elements on her attire to focus on her bottom heavy silhouette, and also to make her more important features more significant. Her skirt was shortened to give more space to show off her calves better, for a more agile feel.

I'll setup some better renders of the sculpt when I get to it, but in the meantime here is a rough Polypaint pass to visualize how she looks like in color!

Will show the Rooster and her weapon soon.

TommyGTeguh 2018-03-01 16:48:51 UTC #14

Just showing the Rooster and Chakram sculpts. Quick screenshots and polypaint from Zbrush. Still doing retopology.

TommyGTeguh 2018-03-06 07:21:17 UTC #15

SUNRISE ROOSTER MONK

Barely made it in time. Glad I got it done! I have more images that I'd like to upload especially for my progress in the last few days. For now I am uploading just the necessities to get this in time.

Will follow up with some other goodies soon!

Lovely character and I like the pet too. Cool to see it in Marmoset Viewer.

fantasymaster 2018-03-07 09:34:56 UTC #17

Great finish, congrats!

felipechaves 2018-03-08 03:22:57 UTC #18

Ha! I loved the art style!! Everything is working so well!! Really good shapes and proportions!! Really loved it!! Reminds me a lot the Overwatch art style!! Great work!! Good luck!!

TommyGTeguh 2018-03-19 18:59:01 UTC #19

@alexlashko @fantasymaster @felipechaves Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Unfortunately, because I didn't have "Final" on my thread name, my entry never got to the judges. Confirmed it with a moderator. Definitely learned a humbling lesson here to always, always, read the rules.

Regardless, the motivation to finish by competing this ArtWar alone, is well worth it. I took what I had a few weeks ago, and polished it further.

Enjoy!

sucks that you missed that final detail but you did an amazing job on this character. I really liked this character a lot. From the style to its colors.
