Astarion

Introducing my fan-made interpretation of the game character Astarion from the remarkable game 'Baldur’s Gate 3.' The aim was to recreate this character with maximum realism, adhering meticulously to the original game's shapes and proportions. The result, I believe, is a humanized version adorned with elf ears. Another my key reference was the voice actor Neil Newbon, from whom I drew inspiration for realistic nuances—closely observing the imperfections of the skin, the presence of moles, the depth of eyes, the interplay of specular highlights, and much more.

Rendered with Pixar's Renderman. 
I used ZBrush for sculpting. Grooming was done with XGen Core, ZWrap was used for Details transfer and topology wrapping, I did clothes in Marvelous Designer and textures in Mari. 
Textures by TexturingXYZ. Special thanks to Peter Syomka for helping me with the base mesh creation!

I was using the game references by Stephanie Chafe.
