Project 1 Finished

Finally finished my Character Project. I completely redid the rig from scratch especially for this character. I also added detail to the model by smoothing and refining the model, chopping his beard, and closing his mouth. Finally I redid his textures, adding some corrosion to his metal and pegleg, improving the boot leather, and adding some dirt to his shirt and coat. Here are some renders, a turntable animation and a walk cycle animation.

Here is the play blast that led to Leon's demise:
