Hey guys!

I've started a new project lately based on a concept from Nick Acuna , it's a shield maiden's shield. I changed the design a bit to fit a more simplistic approach that I'd like to get. Had a lot of fun sculpting the high poly in Zbrush and here's my result so far.

Any feedback/comment is welcome! Thanks

Ha what a great concept to work from! You have really nailed the expression on the face! I think that the eyeball is far to visible and not embedded in to any form of eye socket or shape of a skull. So the face looks like it is missing some underlying anatomy. But otherwise it looks damn good!

Will you do the rest of the faces attached to the shield?

@Nuclear Angel : Thanks a lot! That's a very good point, I'll try to fix it. I don't plan to do the other faces, I'd like to keep it simple that way

I've refined some details on the sculpt and I'm now ready to jump into the retopolgy, will keep the thread updated!

Quick update. I've been working on the texture a lot lately, mainly in Substance Painter. Sorry for the lack of update during the retopology/baking period, it was pretty straightforward!

As always, comment and critics are welcome
