Gloomhaven Miniature #9

NEWS: All of my gloomhaven characters are now officially part of the mod "Tabletop Fantasy Setup" (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1301493206&searchtext=gloomhaven+fantasy+setup)

This project is about 3d modeling of characters, which appear as miniatures in the board game "Gloomhaven". During the corona pandemic, the game tabletop simulator became quite familiar and there is a fantastic steam workshop mod called "gloomhaven fantasy setup" which unfortunately does not have all characters (in 3d) included. So i decided to bring these wonderful miniatures in 3d to this mod. I hope you guys enjoy my work - for all who also play this boardgame, i do not want to spoil here, so i do not name this character wink!
The modeling of this character is based on the painting, which each character sheet has. I started painting blueprints from front and side perspective, and then started modeling in blender. The cool thing about this project is, that each character has its own challenges in modelling. This one was cool challenge in sculpting "rock skin" and play around with emissive maps for the magic effect. I finished the models with a complete map baking of all textures (included the specular/roughness maps) into one diffuse map for the tabletop simulator (which you can also see in the sketchfab version).
