Hey folks! I've been working on a new piece as for a cyberpunk challenge along with some people at work. I'm currently planning for a baked hand-painted style at game-res.

Moving into the ZBrush stage now -- not too much sculptural detail yet as I'm still nailing forms down. Much of her is still placeholder block-in, and I plan to rework the hands/gloves.

Original concept:

Two "cyberpunk" characters on the first page, why are people so obsessed by cyberpunk, surely there are cooler things to be into, looking good though.

Nothing wrong with cyberpunk...

Anyhow, cool character. But doesn't appear cyberpunk-ish to me. Just futuristic-looking.

@PyrZern Thanks! -- and that's fair, I was going more for a retrofuturistic vibe than direct cyberpunk. I'll reflect that in the thread title.

More work on her this weekend, much less block-in. Next up is her holster before doing another pass.

her shoulders need to be wider and a bit larger, her shoulder pads should stick out a bit more for a more square silhouette, maybe bring the bottom of her jacket lower as well. her hips and upper leg seem really disproportionately large compared to the rest of her, could tweak her proportions to fix that. really cool character though, I'm into it

Finishing up the high poly this weekend, took a ton of feedback into account, thanks folks!

Thanks for the support, folks! My bakes are done, did some broad value stuff but no real painting yet, just WIP color gradients. Still tweaking value ranges and palette. Seeing a lot of geo/silhouette stuff I can tweak.

Progress on textures, finishing them this week. The plan is to make a simple pedestal between figuring out poses for finals. Hoping to hit the finish line by late next week.

Trying to decide on using two separate textures for jacket on/off, since there are some baked lighting/shadows that I think would make things feel more finished if they were present on each (speaking specifically of the chest and neck area). Might be able to get away with more subtle lighting information in that area.

So close. Got some good feedback and made some adjustments. Dropped her holster and added more highlights/shadows. Not quite finished with textures, but I'm moving on to rig/poses and expressions for finals next week.
