The Banished God Vala
This was a passion project of mine. I am happy I was able to put my thoughts into art and complete this project. There is a lot to improve but I am happy with what I achieved. I used Zbrush for sculpting, Blender for retopo ,fur, shading, and rendering, Substance Painter for texturing, and Photoshop for Comp work.
Vala the Avenger. Son of now-deceased Odin was cast out of
Asgard for avenging his brother Balder's death by killing Balders
slayer Hod.
After Hod killed Balder the impenetrable by using an arrow
coated in Mistletoe oil (The only thing that could penetrate
Balder who had been enchanted by his mother to be immortal)
Vala requested the New Council to allow him to hunt down Hod
and avenge his brother's death. The council had refused his
request because they believed that such was Balders Destiny.
Against the wishes of the council, Vala set out to avenge his
beloved brother. He could not accept fate and avenged his
brother's death by slaying Hod and preforming the grotesque
Blood eagle ritual on Hod to ensure he does not get granted
access into Valhalla, forever to walk the plains of forgotten souls.
The New Council Banished Vala for his inhumane slaughter of
Hod and Dismissal of the New Councils wish.
Vala now walks the earth as a mortal. He is slowly regaining
the consciousness of his true past and regaining some of his Godlike
abilities in small violent bursts of rage and insecurity of who he
truly is.
