Overview

The Forest Guardian is a stylized character designed for a third-person adventure game. The design blends organic and magical elements — bark-like armor, glowing rune markings, and flowing moss details.

Process

High-poly sculpting was done in ZBrush, retopology in Maya, and texturing in Substance Painter. The final model is under 30k triangles and fully rigged for real-time animation in Unreal Engine.
