[WIP] The Phantom of the Opera - The red death

HazelTheHobbit · Sep 2017

Hey guys! I've recently started this project on a bit of a whim. Was obsessed with Phantom of The Opera when I was younger and this costume is just gorgeous!

I started a new basemesh the other day and I've just been blocking in clothing today using marvelous designer as a base. Progress should (in theory) be a lot slower than usual since I'm working full time but I think it'll be a nice one to keep chipping away at and getting into all those details!

Worked a little more on this today, just trying to get some base forms in for the folds etc. The fabric is this thick sorta velvety thing that I hope I'm gonna be able to get accross in the sculpt/textures cause it's sooo nice and different.

Little update, not sure whether the changes are all that noticeable yet haha

Started refining details now and got a block in for the sword. Not 100% sure how I'm going to approach the golden stitching details so advice on that is very welcome!

A few teensie adjustments

This is looking very nice. I like the front of the boots but not the back of the boots the wrinkles just dont feel as realistic. The gold sitching is going to be a pain because if you want it to look exactly like the photo you have to make them from scratch in a photo editing program. Those should be part of the texture/material though. Good luck!

@polygons Good call on the boots! I'd worked on the front and then just abandoned the back so they should be better now!

Made a start on getting the stitches in, definitely very blobby but I want to go around and clean them up once I've got all the shapes in. It'll be tedious but I think it'll look really nice once its done

Progress on the stitching, sketched it in to make it easy to just plod along detailing it up

Just finished the first pass on the stitching, I'll be moving into the final details soon so crit is really appreciated! I think I'll start modelling the sword so I can come back to him with fresh eyes

HazelTheHobbit · Oct 2017

Wrapping up on the highpoly! Got the sword in the works now and I think I'll re-do the cloak towards the end once I've posed him and modeled some stairs for it to drape over! Let me know if you have any crits though!
