I’ve decided to create a game-ready Mermaid character for this contest!
The Concept & Vision:
- The Process: I sketched the original concept myself, then used an AI tool to generate views from different angles to serve as my main design inspiration.
- The Twist: Instead of a classic fish tail, I’m giving her unique legs-flippers.
- The Vibe: I’m aiming for a mysterious, darker aesthetic. I’m also planning to add either wings or algae along her spine, which I’ll experiment with during the sculpting phase.
- Color Palette: I intentionally kept the concept grayscale because I want to fully experiment with the colors later during the texturing phase.
Current Progress: I have already created the base mesh in Character Creator 5 in an A-pose. Right now, I’ve imported it into ZBrush to start working on the blockout.
