Overview

The goal of this project is to create a 3D model of a character from scratch in Blender for use in a Sekiro mod.

I decided I would make Mayano Top Gun from Umamusume.

Initial Blockout

The initial blockout of her body.

The mirror modifier is a lifesaver.

The earliest version of her boots.

My favorite part of the whole model!.

The completed body before smoothing.

It will recieve many, many more adjustments.

Her first face!

Scary!

image

Her first tail.

It wouldn't look decent until her THIRD tail later. Her proportions also look horribly off.

Adding her hands.

This is the worst part of her model. Hands are hard!

We finally add her hair.

Iconic!

This took a long time.

Many, many, many hours and half a dozen different scrapped attempts, techniques, and tutorials were used in the process.
