Fairy Statue I

This month's release is a beautiful Fairy Statue! What makes her special is that she's my first ever full color statue, which had a stunning outcome. It separates her from my previous releases and gives her a life-like feel, but if color is not your thing, there's the usual Stone, and Marble texture sets as well. All 3 texture sets are included with and without shadow maps mixed in.

The challenge was adding in more detail then my previous humanoid-type sculptures like eyes and toes, and trying to cover the overlapping joints. I've never mixed red and purple for my daily choice of clothes but this fairy makes it work!

EDIT: It's a Sculpty :) I keep getting asked if it's mesh, the fact that some of you couldn't tell is saying something! Color Rules! :D

Dragon IV Update

Remember this one? No right? It's a dust-covered dragon that hasn't gotten too much love since it was first created. My question was, how to update it without losing it's original look? I played around with it a little until I got a stylized result that I liked. The original subject material was made out of copper, so I tried to reflect that with it's new default texture set. I also included a stone version to honer the original.

Cobra Update

Back when I first made the cobra, I didn't know how to use any other sculpted primitive type besides 32x32. So I couldn't make a long body like what's possible with a 16x64 and as a result, it's body was split into multiple sections. That has always bugged me. I decided to rework it next knowing it was simple enough that it wouldn't take me longer then a couple days to do. I gave it a base to sit on and textured it with a golden material that I came up with after combining a few different substances together for some depth. End result = SHINY! The idea to make a gold one came from Ancient Egyptian themed statues and artifacts.  

Dragon X Update

Dragon X is now version 3! With smoother geometry and a complete beard, it looks more like the subject material that first inspired it. It has better normal maps and nicer textures, as well as a few other Oriental-themed material sets, Jade and Gold! I wanted so bad to make it Jade when I was first sculpting it, but I had no idea how to design my own substance materials back then. I also didn't know how mirror mesh models without flipping the normals, turning the model inside-out, and causing upload errors so only the sculpted version was mirrored. Now I can safely upload mirrored mesh models and Dragon X was the first thing I updated with that. Cheers to mirrors, and substance-material authoring.
