With a class full of students a lot of effort went into making this game... hope everyone likes what they see.

Quick render of senior film project

Still working on lighting and some weight mapping issues... but i can still animate! :)

Highpoly to lowpoly sculpt

Here is some of my process: a highpoly face/body mesh retopologized into a lowpoly mesh inside zbrush. I then took the lowpoly mesh from zbrush, brought it into UV layout to create smooth/flat uvs. Then brought the mesh into Xnormal to create an occlusion map and normal map to begin texturing using photoshop and maya.
