Development Process
Reference and Concept-
I started by gathering references for all different depictions of the character across different media as well as more general characters based in the same period to get a gauge for how clothing and armour differed between warriors and how a king would dress
High Poly Body Sculpt-
This was my first proper Zbrush Project beyond messing around with the basic tools.
I used this Ecorche for reference

I mightve gone a little too toned in certain areas but in total I think he's pretty anatomically correct very much just in peak male physique
High Poly Character-
After my brief but terrifying foray into ZBrush I went back to the comfort of my home 3d program and made his armour. This entailed countless layers of FFD and soft selection and if I was to go back and do this project again itd be all in zbrush however Im happy with the final result especially as a first try.
