Hello everyone !
I present you the true Chief of any family . Based on some Ai pic I decided to make a Tattooed granny with influences around the world.
The idea behind this started with some funny jokes about how granny's are the hidden chief of each family and how their specialty is to bend time and space while Olympic throwing and weaponizing the slippers. In the creative process of this artwork I came with slippers nunchakus, the soup spoon arrow, etc. They didn't made the finals because if i've put everything on her she will look more like a warrior and less like a granny.
While surfing on discord I came across some cool Ai pics and decided to make a 3d mix of all of them check the pure ref pic.
The textures are a combination of real life texture, hand sculpted skin and some substance painter procedural noises and wood cuts.
During the creation I wanted to add a lot of common details and assets to represent most of the cultures, all tho at the start and in the references she is more of a Tibetan influences granny. From the tattoos to the hair style to the spoon to the clothing to the wooden balls to the pipe smoking I hope to hit as many cultures as possible.
The overall feeling I wanted to give you a poor social status of a old lady but also wanted to show the wisdom riches slapped into anybody who dare challenge the real chief .
The entire character without the environment has 136k polys
