VG Remix- Rayman Origins (Sea of Serendipity)

Defexio

Hello! Sorry for my late entry, just found out about this contest today, and it my first Polycount contest, but I would very much like to give it a try. My idea is a low poly 3D Diorama of an environment from the Sea of Serendipity zone of the Game Rayman: Origins. I think it will be an interesting challenge to translate the game's unique art style and vibrant color pallete into 3D. I dont use forums very often so please forgive me if I link something the wrong way.

Awesome idea. One of my favourite platformers. Still playing it now.

Best of luck with it!

Defexio

Thanks! Here's a concept drawing of the environment. It's kind of vague but I know I definitely want to have the flying pirate ship, Rayman, the Glute frog-like characters that inhabit the area and the wooden structures build on top of the platforms.

Defexio

Just modeled a Glute one of the races that populate the world of Rayman: Origins just under 500 polys.

Modeled and UV'd the Airship, also UV'd the Glute model. Both were UV'd in 3D-Coat which made the process exceptionally quick and easy. My planned pipeline will be to model everything in Softimage, UV and texture in 3D-Coat, and pose and upload from Zbrush

Defexio

Just finished modeling and UVing Rayman. I've decided to Model and UV everything first and then paint all of the textures.

I will use transparency maps for the hair and drawstrings of his hoodie,

Modeled and UV'd the terrain

Defexio

hmm anyone have some advice for the best way to link images without them being attachments?

Currently modeling all of the buildings and adjusting them to the terrain.

Previewing A textured version of Rayman, no opacity map yet, but there will be!

Had to remodel Rayman's hair because Sketchfab doesn't like overlapping polygons with opacity can't work on this Sunday or Saturday, time to Hustle!

Defexio

Heres the Textured Glute named Globox!

Not really sure how to make the other side of the rudder not black though..

sheckee

Could duplicate the Rudder and flip its Normals. That might work.

Defexio

Fixed the rudder and propellers, that took longer than it should have but the ship is finally done

Defexio

Finished modeling the buildings, figuring out the placement of them on the terrain. Probably going to add a rope bridge to connect the long dock and the smaller building in the middle. Then its on to UV and texture

Defexio

Textured the Buildings and Terrain, now just need to add a couple of props, and the airship , and Rayman and Globox of course, and I think that will be it for me.

Defexio

Adding Props and final placement of everything
