If you’ve ever played a Souls game and been awestruck by the world-building and designs, you’ve come to the right place!

In this 18-hour course, the aim is to create a thematically similar character to those of the beloved Souls universe. Let’s take a ZBrush journey together and explore the many aspects of creating a full character from start to finish.

Everything you see, we’ll make! That’s right, nothing is skipped or time-lapsed. You’ll be guided through the entire process with commentary. When all is said and done, you will have the necessary tools to not only re-create, but also venture out on your own, and start creating bosses for yourself.

WHAT WE’LL COVER
Some of the topics we’ll be covering includes:

Anatomy
Design Philosophy
Weapon Creation
Posing
Texturing
ZModeler

I recommend that you have a decent working knowledge of ZBrush as we’ll be jumping straight in.

WHAT’S INSIDE
In addition to the narrated videos, you’ll find all relevant workfiles that you need in order to follow along. This includes:

24 Narrated Videos
2 Bonus Chapters
ZBrush Noise Presets
Custom Chain Brush
Fabric Texture
Complimentary PDF
Custom UI
Custom Hotkeys

Included are two bonus chapters where we focus on getting our model in and out of ZBrush as well as doing a complete lightning setup in Blender
