Update on my 80's Starfire model.

Further work on Starfire

I was heartbroken last month when I learned that one of my all time favorite comic book artists, the legendary George Perez, has terminal pancreatic cancer, and has but a few months left in this world.

This is a tribute to him - Starfire, from his New Teen Titans comic from the 80s, that he created with Marv Wolfman.

I started by focusing on the anatomy, and I wanted to try some stuff - I wanted to give her african/american features, because that's how I always imagined Starfire like, and also because I think that's how GP drew her by the end of his run in the comic. I also made her taller than average.

Currently I'm sculpting the hair. More on this later.

More work in progress on my Xandra Blackwater piece, a character from Frank Cho's Fight Girls comic.

Texturing is halway and currently I am working on the hair card textures. Excited to see this girl done!

This was my first time rendering an asset in Adobe Stager, still need some getting used to, but I like how easy it is to send an asset from Painter to Stager.

Happy New Year, everyone!

Currently taking a class with the amazing Rafael Souza, and I started making this project. It's a bit different from what I have been doing, but it feels nice to switch gears a bit.
