This project was carried out to make a comprehensive guide for artists who are seeking to learn the pipeline of creating a 3D character textured in hand-painted style from an initial concept to a fully finished optimized character suitable for games. The aim of this thesis is to present all the necessary information to get an artist started on this path as well as offer theoretical background to this topic, and describe trends that are driving the scene of handpainted texturing style. The project consisted of a character concepting phase, followed by creating a high-poly model of the character in Zbrush. The model was later retopologized in Topogun to get a low-poly version that is used further in the process and that is suitable for games. Then the model went through technical preparation for the texturing stage. Lastly the character was textured in 3D-coat, a result analysis was done and conclusions were drawn. The outcome of this project is a comprehensive document with valuable information and a game-ready 3D character based the original concept of Sylvanas Windrunner from the World of Warcraft game. The outcome includes a high-poly and a low-poly version and a texture map.

When Thomas MacDonald, a somewhat dull thirty-something bookstore clerk, finds three suitcases near a dumpster, he has no idea of the adventures ahead of him. He swiftly discovers that his new-found baggage is a time-travel portal, one that seems to have a purpose to its destinations into the past. But what is it? And how does his new-found love fit in? Should he tell her about his travels? Will she think he has lost his mind? Or maybe, just maybe, they might figure out how to use those suitcases to their advantage.During the COVID-19 pandemic, three writers began searching for a way to beat the "stay at home" blahs. They began work on a series of short stories, wherein each would write the beginning of a story, pass it on to the second, who passed it on to the third. At the end of the week, they met on Zoom and shared their work. One of those stories just kept growing and became the novella, Baggage. Enjoy!
