This week I prepared my foliage cards in Maya. First I create a new plan and apply the texture. Then I separate each foliage and position the plan. Also I need to duplicate each card to create a larger quantity of foliage so they appear more appealing.

Blocking face
I start blocking the feature of this character’s face at this stage. Like foliage sculpting, I use brushes like Clay Buildup mostly to build the major forms of the feature. Because I want to make a stylized character, it is necessary for me to focus on the balance of the overall proportions.
