Hi! My name is Isis Mawdsley and I'm a (soon to be) VFX graduate. This project has helped me improve at sculpting realistic characters and paint realistic textures (I want to improve even more!) I loved creating a fantasy character as it gives you freedom to design the character from imagination. It was so much fun!

Setting up the final shot

I created the final shot in Maya. I modelled an environment and imported a terrain created in Houdini and used lights to bring it to life. I created the spirits by using the same model but posed differently and attaching a mesh light so it made it magical. I painted the spirit's hair manually on the Procreate app and edited the image on Adobe's Photoshop.

Thank you for checking out my project! I've really enjoyed the whole process of creating Serena and now I have to continue practicing to become the best artist I can be. 

Thank you TheRookies for giving us the opportunity to share our work. Good luck everyone!
