Production Process

  • May 21st, 2025
This week on Project Storm

In this production log, we will keep you updated throughout the development of the character. We will share our decision-making process, the tools we use, and the workflow we follow. The journey begins with concept art, modeling, and shading. From there, we will dive deeper into the technical aspects of the core of this project: facial rigging. Stay tuned to follow the project with new updates every week!
