Manisalguero – Hand-Painted Character with 2D look Maya

This is not the full course — just a sneak peek to show how it all begins.
You’ll find the first units of the full workflow, including:

• Intro to the project and concept
• First steps in Zbrush
• Early thoughts on style, shape, and design

If you’d like to keep going with the rest of the process, there’s more content available for those interested in diving deeper! ????

I’ve been exploring more graphical and painterly styles in Maya. My previous piece, Zuko, was a full character, but this time I wanted to try something more graphical and experimental.
The idea was simple: take the first cool concept I found on Pinterest — literally the first one — and turn it into 3D without overthinking it.

The model started from a Dynamesh sphere in ZBrush, hand-painted in Substance Painter, and rendered with Arnold.
The goal: blend the feel of 2D illustration with 3D structure, using dynamic lighting and painterly textures.

The full course is 26 units, where I go step by step through everything I did to reach the final result, from the sculpting, texturing, uvs, shading hypershade, dynamic light, and 2D animation.
