Character Customization

2. Modeling and Rigging

2.1. Introduction
The task of modeling characters is rather complicated because it crosses multiple disciplines and requires extensive knowledge in each one. That's why character creation, in general, is usually a task tackled by multiple people, especially in the film industry. In games, however, where budgets are lower, these disciplines are expected to be mastered by one individual and is seldom the case.

Some of those disciplines include:
- Concept Art / Character Design
- Human Anatomy
- Texturing and UV Layouts
- Shaders & Lighting
- 3D Modeling
- Rigging
- Animation

I am eons away from excelling in any one of these but I tried my best and with the help of character artist Ken Osuna and art director Bruce Sharp, you will see what we were able to accomplish in just one year.
