The Sculpting Process—From Base Shape to Dark Majesty
1. Sketching the Core Structure
- Using Curvy’s sketch-based modeling, I quickly outlined the character’s stance, ensuring the proportions felt commanding and mysterious.
- The soft move tools helped refine the flow of the antlers and robes, making sure the silhouette was strong and recognizable.
2. Sculpting the Details
- Antlers & Facial Features: Using voxel merge, I sculpted sharp, branching antlers, ensuring they looked like extensions of the character’s mystical power.
- Hanging Skulls: The warp brushes helped refine the tree’s eerie decorations, making them feel like remnants of past rituals.
- Textured Armor & Accessories: A mix of inflate and deflate brushes added depth to the clothing and belts, ensuring the textures felt real and battle-worn.
3. Painting & Texturing for Maximum Impact
- Deep, muted tones gave the character a shadowy, enigmatic presence, making them feel like a guardian of forgotten knowledge.
- Lightmaps & Specular Highlights: These enhanced the metallic accents, ensuring they stood out against the dark, misty backdrop.
- Subtle shading: Added depth to the tree and skulls, ensuring the scene looked like it was steeped in ancient magic.
Final Touches & Rendering
Once the sculpt was complete, I posed the character in a commanding stance, ensuring they looked ready to channel their dark energy. The dramatic lighting and atmospheric effects helped enhance the gothic fantasy atmosphere, making the scene feel like a moment of legend.
