He utilises as many UDIMs as possible to achieve a great UV texture resolution.Īfter this, Malone starts work on the body texture in Zbrush using HD Geometry along with the asset textures in Substance Painter.

He worked on the incredibly detailed character in between cinematic and video game projects for a range of companies.
