Prince of Persia - Retrogasm 2018

[enalya]

Hi everyone! The Retrogasm contest has brought me back from a long break (thank you Lazardous <3)

I will be making one of my favourite game (characters): Prince of Persia. I've chosen his Shadow and the Flame version, because it looked like great fun to translate to stylized modern version. So far it has been!

This is the first time I'm working on a male. For every project I think about ways to challenge myself, mostly it comes down to learning one or two important things. My goals for this project:

• Stylized realism/PBR - Overwatch/Fortnite style
• Believable male anatomy in that style

I'll do my best to achieve these Feedback is very welcome.

Good luck to all participants!

WIP - sculpting phase
I started with my own male basemesh.

Ohh, good old Prince of Persia, nice choice of character, I think it sparks a little bit of nostalgia in everyone
Looking great so far, the only thing that may not be your intention is that he looks very young, maybe a bit childish because of the bigger head. Or maybe you want it that way, not sure how old he is supposed to be
Looking forward to see more of him though!!

@Acolet You are totally right! Thank you, great feedback I tried to apply it:

This is a great study for male anatomy!

Meanwhile I finished his low poly (this is a screenshot of the almost finished version):

And the bakes came out nice imo:

After finishing up the texturing I will make his sword!

I finished Prince in time for the Retrogasm 2018 deadline I'm proud of this, because I joined very late and made the right decisions to not aim too high with the amount of props and details, while still putting myself up with the right challenges.
