"Small But Mighty" is a dragon, dinosaur, and Godzilla inspired 3D creature project that I've worked on in collaboration with another artist (@shatteredmutant). His illustrations inspired the proportions and basic fundamentals of this creature's design. The entire model is below 55k polys. I really enjoyed this project and saw this as an opportunity to learn more in depth about the creature texturing process.
zBrush: High poly sculpt, decimation, remeshing, retopology. Blender: Continuation of retopology process, low and mid poly meshes, UV-unwrap with UV-tiles workflow, rigging, animations. Substance Painter: Texturing with UV-tiles workflow.
