Circus Magus - The Apprentice

Based on the beautiful concept by Marie Magny: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/JlRva0

This was an incredibly fun and challenging piece to work on. I learned so much working my way through it, including a little bit of rigging and animation! I used Advanced Skeleton to help me rig this character so that I could pose and animate her. I wanted to go for a more stylized look, so all of the textures are hand-painted in 3DCoat. The final low poly mesh is just under 100k tris, imported and rendered in Unreal Engine 4.
