CYBERPUNK ORC
ROLE
Character Artist
DESCRIPTION
Taking the idea of cyberpunk then mixing it with fantasy I came up with the idea for a cyber orc gang member. To keep it in line with an orcs menacing nature, I envisioned him as a gang leader. Adding the claw to the cyber limb only strengthens the fact that this is an orc.

CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
FINAL SCULPT
From start to finish, this sculpt took me around four days in sculpting time, A lot of this time was taken up envisioning how the various pieces would come together. Making quick decisions on design choices along the way.
HEAD SCULPT
Taking inspiration from Cyberpunk, I added the facial lines and markings. Battle scars were also added to emphasise the life this character has led. Extending the lower jaw out to enable the tusks to be visible also helped capture the overall feel of the character.
TROUSERS SCULPT
I hand sculpted the trousers and applied cloth creasing by hand. Finally I used a cloth stitch alpha I created.
OVERCOAT SCULPT
Sculpting the coat was a stylised choice which ensured my final vision was adhered to.
GUN SCULPT
I decided to create the gun using ZBrush. Using IMMs and sculpting allowed me to quickly iterate the design.

TEXTURES & RENDERS
The poster was rendered using Substance 3D Stager. The gun was textured and rendered in Substance 3D Painter. Shoulder tattoo and dirt alpha was made in Photoshop.
