RIG.B N.O.V.A

Introduction

References

The first stage of this form is by far the most important to define how the complete composition would be made. And to facilitate and organize the reasoning I created different groups of references.

Texturing and Shading

Process Details

The main details textures of the character:

Albedo: In the painting process, I chose to do the whole combination of procedural and hand-painted approaches. Using the Soft Brush and Hard Soft at all times, taking care that the texture was not so generic in the parts of the robot.

Metalness/Roughness: For Roughness and Metalness I used procedural materials, tweaking the details so that it was smoother making a variation of large and small scales, with scratches and wear not being as apparent. So as not to interfere with viewing the painting.

Normals: Small depth tweaks to some parts of the Torso, Arms and Neck.

Emissives: For the Emissives, I created some alphas for the eyes and for the Exoskeleton and smoke. I didn't want to overdo the lighting so much that I gave the character too much information.
