Created for Immémoriale short film
ZBrush, Maya, Substance Painter, Marvelous Designer
The mysterious and elegant Queen of death is the secondary character of my thesis film Immémoriale. I reused the base model and rig for Joan, using blend shapes to slightly modify the body shape. I had a lot of fun creating the dress in Marvelous Designer and texturing in Substance Painter, especially creating the opacity map to make the edges of the dress and veil transparent. After finalizing animation, I simulated the fabric in Marvelous and then reimported the final alembic into Maya for rendering.
I was inspired by the silhouettes of Victorian mourning dress and medieval and renaissance fashions. I also wanted to play with the sheerness of the fabric to give a more ethereal and ghostly effect.
