3D Render by AquillaI've been doing hard surface modelling for the last 25 years as a hobby. I used to draw characters years ago but never tried doing it in 3D.
A friend turned me on to Blender a few years ago and last year I started working on Characters. I started with base meshes and am now I'm learning costumes and animation. I'm hooked.
I've also been building functional medieval armor since 1992 so Medieval and classic period armor has been the inspiration for all my characters so far.
I try to bring my practical knowledge together with my love for fantasy art.
My goal will be to make fantasy Characters and settings as real and believable as possible.
Lots to learn but I'm having fun with it.
This is pure fantasy. Skin tight scale mail combined with a steel Corset giving a nod to the Greek and later Roman Cuirass.
Add black leather gloves, Thigh high boots and a leather skirt for style and you have Armor that's right at home on a fashion show Catwalk.

Got involved in the work and forgot to tale a screenshot of the boots creation. Had some trouble with it due to the fact that I wanted hi heels and the model was at rest flat footed. Made the boots then when parented them to the armature they kept popping up out of position. Figured out that I had to put the Armature back in the resting position then adjust the boot model to that position then transfer the weight paint and it worked fine. I did take a shot of the material though.

Mon, Sep 01I later decided that the gloves and boots would look better in black. I originally thought that white would be a good contrast but it just didn't work for me.
