The Lost Key

I haven't had much time but I was able to retopo the base to our little project. There are some things to address such as her hands. We haven't decided if we want to make them human, claws, or talons. The same goes with her facial features and ears. Is she going to have a human face or be part animal? That's why she sort of has a floating detached face.

After finishing my capstone and I am eager to start looking at something new, and so a friend and I have decided to tackle the manananggal. A Philippine creature that can look human but can detach it's upper body from the lower. We're both planning on creating one with something that ties them together. My friend is still learning the basics so I suggested we just work on the upper part of the bodies. Pretty neat since the creature has a separate lower part that we can create later once she gets the hang of it. Progress so far: Manananggal Zbrush Video

It was a long semester in which I basically worked only on this project. I did everything seen including animation, characters, lighting, editing, environment, effects, etc. I spread myself pretty thin on this but with the amount of time I had I will say that I am proud.
