Icon art work for my next mobile game.
How I created this first iteration is relatively simple.
1. I took one of the player character skins & posed it as I have all ready rigged & animated them.
2. After posing, subdivided the model to smooth it out & created more details like the eyebrows and tongue to give the bird some emotion.
3. Threw that transperant render to photoshop to add some filters and over paint the result.
