Project Overview

This character was modelled for a short film, set during the pandemic. I blocked out the initial body in Maya and took that to Zbrush for the detailed sculpt. The shape language of of the character was inspired by The Little Prince and Luca.

I textured him in Substance Painter where I created a felt like material. Then I added the detail of the felt fiber using Xgen in Maya. My goal was to make this is character look like a wool doll, which required me to experiment with new techniques while texturing.
