Ana María González - Character and prop artist

Hello there! I'm Ana María González, this is my first year participating in The Rookies. I created the following projects during my formation at Voxel School in Madrid, where I did an Advance Master's in Character Artist for AAA Videogames. I hope you all like my models!

Magic Staff - Stilized Prop

I did this prop during my last master in Voxel School. The task was modeling and sculpting a prop in Zbrush. This was not my first time modeling a prop, but I've learned a lot of things I didn't know before.

I made the high and low mesh in Zbrush, after that I made the UVs in 3dsMax and the baking in Marmoset. Next I did the textures in Substance Painter and finally I went back to Marmoset to do a rendering pass.

Sculpting process

The sculpting process of the prop was not too difficult. The most difficult parts are maybe the feather and the skull. 

UVs

For the uvs I began with of all of the subtools first subdivision on 3dsMax. I separated everything on UV sets: the stick, the feathers, the skul, the ropes, the leaves and all the accessories.

Bake and textures

I did the bakes in marmoset. Later i made the rest of the maps on substance painter .
