This was mainly a colour study for the film. It could still work. The main character is reddish or orange and it could be a nice complementary contrast to the entire green environment.
I am having a look at the Maya Paint effects. I dont know much about it but the library of 'brushes' is huge. There is grasses, trees, shrubs, etc. Here I had a go at 'painting' some trees. They look really good.
I have been learning this new program called z brush. It is like sculpturing in 3D. It is a lot of fun. I wa thinking this would look great if I could put it into my short film.
Here I painted the flower textures with ink on paper. I then scanned in the images cleaned up in photoshop. Then the flower and leaf were made as separate textures in maya.
