Blender Character Sculpt - Hollow Knight
In this video I'll model, sculpt, rig and quickly render the Hollow Knight character in Blender.
This was a livestream event, so everything happens in real time with a bit of QnA spaced throughout the video.
There is also a timelapse version of this video for anyone who can't sit through the 2.5 hours livestream. It has some additional video at the end where I rework some things and complete a final render:
