This piece was a late-night experimental journey translating a 2D Dutch classic crusin' character into a stylized 3D version. This was a lot of fun exploring mixing media and designing a character that was not hyper-real. When thinking about what type of bike this character could ride, I had to bring out the classic Amsterdam Project 346 Basman crusier!! Always best to sit back, cruise low and slow.
Process
A little bit of the process I went through in designing this animation loop. Everything started off with pencil on paper and then slowly took shape in 3D. All original model, hand painted textures and some basic rigging.
