Zygomignus

Happy to present my latest character called Zygomignus. He is a cute and harmless little guy living in the forest in symbiosis with Fireflies. Zygomignus chose to devote his life to free and ensure happiness to all the Fireflies he can find - That are unfortunately being locked up against their will for their ability to produce light. And who used to wander freely in the forest. By doing that, he gives a chance to these small creatures not to die in horrible conditions. Always remember : a free animal is an Happy animal. Made with : Zbrush - Maya - Arnold - Substance Painter - Texturing XYZ - Marvelous Designer hope you like it !

Shaman's Land

Shaman's Land tells the story of a Shaman who lives deep in the forest on the outskirts of the local villages. The Shaman provides protection and good fortune to those who offer tokens of gratitude, but the Shaman's powers may come from a darker origin.

Deckard, Blade Runner

I attended Kris Costas Digital Portrait course ( https://www.flyonthewall.studio) a while back, never got around to finishing my project up. (Huge recommendation, awesome stuff! ) Finally got some time on my hands and decided to just be done with it. Everything is hand sculpted down to the pores and same goes for the textures, hand painted just like Kris taught us! HUGE thanks to Esbjörn ( https://www.artstation.com/esbjornnord ) for an endless stream of critique and help and also to my wife, who puts up with me spending all my free time doing computer stuff
