Texturing: Textures were crafted in Substance 3D Painter, using a combination of hand painting and high-resolution skin maps to achieve delicate color variation, pore detail, and subsurface scattering characteristics appropriate for light-toned skin.

Hair Grooming: The hairstyle was created using XGen in Maya, with individually controlled guides to shape soft, flowing strands that frame the face naturally and enhance the character's realism.

Rendering: Final renders were completed in Arnold for Maya, using a cinematic lighting setup and realistic skin shaders to bring out depth, mood, and subtle detail in every frame.

Whether you're learning hyper-realistic character creation or building your next standout portfolio piece, this is a must-watch breakdown.

Tools Used:

• ZBrush (for sculpting)

• Marvelous Designer (garment creation)

• Substance 3D Painter (for texturing)

• Maya & XGen (for hair grooming)
