What am I doing right now? A 3D Character!

The final product is ready! Here's a sneak peak for the first image.
Afterwards you can see in-progress shots and thoughts.

The entire project will be uploaded to the website portfolio soon.

I am currently working on a 3D portrait for a real person. They requested a 3D avatar for the upcoming MetaVerse hype, which will be inspired from the Matrix Universe when done.

It is great to work on such amazing characters.

The face is as accurately built as possible to the real person, for now. I have yet to decide wether to use a stylized proportion or a realistic one further on. Retopology has been done and the textures are in place.

For some props, they requested some cool, Matrix-inspired, glasses, so I sketched these temporarily, as shown below. More coming in. Thinking of one of those long coats!

Let us see where this goes. It's a lovely project, fun and engaging.

After discussions, a style change was requested. Now working on some cool hairstyle to convert to game-ready hair cards. This will be obtained by converting hair particles to meshes and extruding them individually, and some texturing and shading magic.
