I had the pleasure to work with Shherl, a Music Artist based in Graz.
He just released a new EP called "Shhein". For that he had a specific idea in mind that we worked on. It should show himself personating the topic of the EP.

As he is a designer himself, I got a lot of constructive feedback. Hence, this project was done very smoothly. I did the modelling in blender and the rendering in Octane.
We worked on the cover, but also a small animation, that he used for his presentation in social media. For that I rigged the model. It later got sent to his animator, Thomas Jeindl, who put everything together with the background.
His music is great, don't forget to have a look at his other songs too!

In the first briefing, the plans were to position shherl (artist) in the sky. For that I did some sketches showing him in various positions. As it turned out as he imagined right from the beginning, I could continue with the one in the middle.
Model
The first model was very rough. It had already all the basics, but for the feedback-loop it needed to be loose enough, that feedback would not cost too much time. The background was just a stock picture.
Cleaning up the model and adding details was the next step. I drew a background, added some other details on the model to finish the piece, ready for new feedback.
Background Variation
The drawn background was too different form the realistically textured model, so I did some variations with stock clouds, that I modified and retouched to what I needed.
Test render of character
Some shapes had to be changed, to make the character more realistic, like eyes and hands.

In the end, the animation got sent to Thomas Jeindl, who did the final touch and animation. finished the cover with a variation of his own clouds, as he is a designer himself. Congratulation, it turned out great! Love the music! Go check it out!
