Alm - Fire Emblem Fanart - WIP
As a longtime fan of Fire Emblem, it's about time I did some fanart! Pauldrons are a huge part of the character design in FE, so I had to dive right into pipelining it out. Going for a handmade feel to the armor instead of looking like perfectly machined pieces of metal. Retopo done in 3DCoat, texture bakes done in Marmoset Toolbag.
Renders captured from Substance Painter. Using the PBR pipeline.
UV Unwrap + Wireframe, layout not final. Just getting preliminary unwraps together to do test bakes.
Using Marvelous Designer to create the Gambeson worn under the armor.
