Jotner for Archetype Entertainment

I’m so excited to finally get to share my Jotner design for Archetype Entertainment! I had a phenomenal time working with art director Jeremy Cook. This is one of the first times I was able to take a 3-D concept model this far. It was incredibly complex and such an exciting creature tackle. The combination of anatomy, fur and hard surface work really kept me busy. Like most of my design work, it started with a bunch of sketches. Once that was approved, I started modeling in Zbrush immediately and would send Jeremy updates. Having the opportunity to push the design further in 3-D kept the entire process exciting. I had so much fun and learned so much on this one character / creature that I’ve tried to repeat the process on every job since. I love starting off with a loose sketch, getting the basic idea down and using the modeling phase to make the design even better!
