Amber's Vespa - Study Sketches

Taking a break from all the number crunching on the render. Need to do some sculpting!

This sketches are mainly to familiarize myself with the general shapes of the Vespa, so that I could reinterpret a design more fitting in Amber's world.

I'm also back to messing about her personality and traits, and thinking of her story. World building is close behind these attempts. =/

Amber - Testing out some Color Grading / Correction

More Amber Renders

.. and some extra bonuses..

Amber Render - Test, Mila Material Shader

UPDATE 16 FEB 2016 :

Some lighting improvements, dress polishing and some color / material changes.

UPDATE 14 FEB 2016 :

Had a chat with Amir, when put to a side to side comparison with a few characters like Elsa, Anna and Rapunzel, Amber seems rather blushed/red. So toned down the subdermal and brought up the epidermal to get something more fair.

Just found out about this awesome shader - mila_material in Maya. Love the customization of the shader, gives me unlimited power! It works surprisingly well with Substance Painter's generated textures and skin + SSS that I created from Mari.

Amber Update Torso - Leather

Some polishing on the leather armor. Exploring renderers at the moment.

Amber's Badges! Update

Amber's Hair

UPDATE : Added highlights :D

Pretty happy with the shape and style, just need to refine it more to look less like the bristles of a broom, and use better shaders.

Eyelashes are pretty symmetrical and uniform, will be messing around with that one soon.
