Week ? - Lighting, Lighting, Lighting.

I've been looking a bit at lighting today, playing around with some techniques.


Really great video. Been researching around other lighting techniques. I've borrowed a book, Stage Lighting Design, so I'm gonna read some of that over the weekend.


Still need to fix up the lips and eyes and such. Playing around with the concept of flags, lighting the eyes and some back light stuff. Still not happy with the intensity of the blind lights. I'll need to fix that up later, soften up the edges of the shadows.


Got the dead body in, retopologised. Need to fix up the light maps and bake everything down.
Its all getting there.

Week ? - Character Updates

Its been a while since I've posted anything, mainly because I've been grinding this character out. She's been polypainted, baked and rigged. Now it's just the finishing touches to the textures.





Basic hair blockouts trying to figure out which one is best.




























Then the base model was completed.
















































After that I did a poly paint. The lingerie will be texutring using substance.




The head test in engine, baked down onto the low poly with some minor texture adjustments. I need to fix the hairline, some of the lip and such.



Some paintovers trying to figure out the final look of the character.

Its been a busy few weeks.

On to assets. I need a break from the character for a bit.
