Ahriel, the queen’s angel

This is Ahriel, the main character from the books "alas de Fuego" and "alas negras", from the Spanish author Laura Gallego García.
I used this personal project to keep improving my 3D skills, and more specifically, this was my first time using hair cards.
· I did the concept art based on the book's description of the character in Procreate.
· I used a female base mesh in Zbrush as the starting point for this project. After adjunting the basic proportions, I created all the different parts for the armor. Then I dedicated some hours to creating the face.
· I did the retopology and UVs in Maya. Then I created the hair using Hair Cards in Maya.
· I used a photo to texture the feathers of the wings, and created the rest of the materials in Substance painter.
· I created the renders in Maya using Arnold, and post-produced the still images with photoshop.
· Composition of the tunraround video using After Effecs.
