-SHORTY- The Hyena
Say hello to Shorty, a vicious hyena designed as an enemy for [Chain of Alliance](https://chainofalliance.com/).
For this piece I was in charge of the full 3D production — from sculpting the high poly to creating the low poly and texturing in a hand-painted style to match the game’s look and feel.
The initial concept comes from the super talented [Pinkbanana](https://www.artstation.com/pinkbanana), whose design provided a strong foundation for the final model.
Workflow:
* High poly sculpt in ZBrush
* Retopo and UVs in Blender
* Hand-painted textures in Substance Painter
* Final presentation in Marmoset Toolbag
I really enjoyed giving this enemy a distinct personality while pushing a stylized pipeline from start to finish.
