Pre-School Wrestling and Martial Arts Character Design for 3D Printing
This was a very fun project that I enjoyed making because it combined two of my favorite things to do in this world which is to design and wrestle. I coach high school wrestling and thought it would be cool to design some wrestling characters to introduce to young people. I noticed there wasn't much art when it came to wrestling for the youth and this was something I wanted to change.
For the project, I created a base mesh in Zbrush and used that as my guide for the character designs. I wanted them to stay consistent but still have individual personalities. Once the base mesh was made, I would do 2D paint overs in photoshop to flesh out the character designs. Using the new 2D concept sheets I created, I would go back to Zbrush and finish sculpting the new details.
Eventually after all this was done, I proceeded to 3D print and paint the characters.
