I wanted to have another go at some stylized World of Warcraft characters and after some searching I found this really cool concept of a night elf sentinel made by Matthew McKeown which I just had to try recreate in 3D. I also used the ingame model as reference for the rest of the angles. Really fun to try out different techniques when it comes to hair modelling and mix some handpainting with your pbr texturing to just name a few things. Modelled in Blender/Zbrush and rendered with Unreal Engine.
Here is the “Behind the Scenes” article of this incredible artwork!
Do check this article written by the artist himself. It describes the process of making the artwork step by step with an insight on character designing in Blender.
