A scifi design done using my 3D character concept process during some training days at Atomhawk!
I had a blast doing this as I love any opportunity to work in 3D with my character designs and a scifi alien design is just the cherry on top.

I've been developing the process for some time now across various projects and themes and this one I am happy to say matched the quality and timeframe of my 2D workflow. For those curious, I started with three fifteen minute thumbnails before blocking in some 3D in Zbrush. The 3D was given some rough materials and lighting in Blender before rendering out, painting in details and creating two painted alt designs. The original 3D was then adjusted and refined to match the chosen sketch before rendering out again and creating a close painted alt in Photoshop. Again the 3D was adjusted to match the chosen design, refined further and rendered to final with full turnarounds.
