Hi guys.. it's been a while update my blog.. just recover from a fever. Inspired by my friend artwork 
The Rnd Phases
I have seen a lot of cute sloth and those cute ring really funny hehehhe. Ok so i go to the next step.. A modeling character.
Modeling - Head
Ok im a Maya user.. so this is a view from the software. So let's start with the head modeling. I created a polygon based for the character. There are so many way to model but im comfortable using polygon.
I don't have a sketch for the character. I design my 3d character by placing out the nose and the eye.
Next i make a detail topology for the head. Construct the mouth and the eye socket. The nose i create a different model on top of it.
Modeling - Body, hand and leg
I create a body part below the head area. Sloth body a longer so i stretch a bit the body length.
Since i don't have a joint rigging to shape the body. I using nonlinear tool to bend the body. Just to give enough pose that i wanted.
Here im using lattice tool the shape the arm more volume at the end.
So this are the rough idea what the character look like.
Modeling - Horn and the money..(bitcoin)
Texture - Open UV
After finalize all the model, its time to texture the character. but 1st need to open the uv for the character.
The head UV - This part i want to create a texture around the eye
The body UV - Not forget the colourful rainbow
The horn UV - The iconic signature horn to complete the slothicorn
Lighting, Rendering and Compose
In these project i create a separate rendering to make an easier adjustment and enhancement.
For the background, i create a purple colour tone in radial gradient to make a character more stand out.
The shadow ground for the subject.
1st stop the character diffuse/colour
Bitcoin diffuse layer
I render out the occlusion layer for the both character and coins.
The character need a shadow cast on the body. To give a realistic to the character body.
Reflections of other objects or the surrounding environment, and can either replace or complement the highlight pass.
OK now here come the money... I render out the coin shadow.
Money mean shiny so.. render out the highlight for the money
A simple greeting word for newbies.. hi slothicorn.
So this are the work process i combine it become a gif format
