Shaman
Made this image for my Substance Painter Interview adding it here now :)
Zbrush sculpt was done a long time ago, but never completed till now. The old model had the head and cap, I ended up adding feathers and clothing to finish him.
Shaman was done as study to learn substance painter, and it developed into a complete project.
I spent painting the textures for the main character in 5 days and than did the illustration part in photoshop. In general the aim was to give this shaman a mystical sense, but also kind of oddly cute, and perplexed look. He is a creature of course references from Native American arrangements and clothing patterns. Other references are from movies like the "never ending story" and "labyrinth".
Had a lot of fun making this :)
