Dark Elf

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a latest piece of character modelling project of mine : The Dark Elf.
The first time I saw the concept art by Tooth Wu, it immediately made a deep impression on my head, the shapes and design are so good I decided to challenge myself by trying to translate it into 3D.It was probably the most challenging project I've done to this date, lots of beautiful little details and mechanism into the design and it is an absolute pleasure of bringing it into life.
This character was a mid-poly, everything done from a base model with standard modelling technique, UV unwrapped then sculpted for high resolution details. Lots of planning and back and forth is done to determine the UV texel density and which UDIM should it fit in the same tile for baking purposes.
The cape was done in Marvelous Designer, 2 sided thickness since the backside was going to be visible as well. Sculpted for higher resolution in ZBrush, then brought back to Marvelous Designer to be simulated for the final pose.
Hope you guys enjoy, I had so much fun creating this.
