Project: Xu

BLOG POST: https://www.artstation.com/davinsaputra/blog/a4gM/making-of-project-xu

This project is based on an artwork from one of my favorite character illustrator since 2 or 3 years ago Jinglin Xu (https://www.artstation.com/xujinglin). I was looking at some of his old stuff when I saw this: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/qEVle. At first it was the interesting framing of character that caught my eye, and the red hair seems quiet fun to do. It has a decent amount of details also and it seemed perfect to do in YCF style (that crazy good Chinese 3d course).

The Goal of this project is to have a render done as fast as possible from scratch, using Chao Dong's (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCC-rjGYsVFrcTlVov4CAXtQ) presentation video as a guide (free version).

I had a whole month off from work because of MCO (movement control order) in Malaysia in response to Covid-19. Because of this I managed to finish this project in roughly 1,5 months.
