Mermaid Character — Digital Sculpting

Designed and developed an original mermaid character through an iterative digital sculpting workflow, exploring the intersection of human anatomy and organic marine forms. Developed the character from initial visual research and concept exploration through anatomical blocking, proportion and silhouette refinement, surface detailing and texture development. Built and refined the model in ZBrush using SubTools, Dynamesh, masking, custom alphas and subdivision workflows, resulting in a cohesive, detailed character prepared for final presentation and rendering.
