Arms and Cloth

I designed to topology and looked development character arm for this week. Moreover, I have spare time to make the cloth in Marvelous designer. 

Blocking and Reference

I choose to create one of the protagonist characters, 'Vultan', because I love this character's design and color pallet. 

I planed to use Forger (3D sculpting software on IPad). This project is my second change using this software. Forger software is portable that I can easily use whenever I want, but it comes with a limitation. That is why blocking the full-body character in Forger is immensely challenging. Also, it is the reason why I will detail it in Zbrush. 

For reference, after I saw the wing in the concept art, it reminded me of the flying squirrel. Because of this, I designed it to make it close to a gliding suit with some organic movement from a flying squirrel. Also, I intended to make the top part of his dead closer to the bumble bee's wing.

For material reference, I choused the scale material from Boeleni Python, which has beautiful iridescent effects. For his pants, I choose nylon pants because they will be easier to move and fight.
