Young Knight — based on Gouf Gouf concept art study.
Textures, shadows, and highlights were hand-painted to achieve a 2D illustrated look. Handled model adjustments, materials, camera, and lighting in Unity, while María Perez Galan worked on the base model and painterly texturing of the character. Different scene variants were explored, starting from a version faithful to the original concept and evolving into new material and lighting reinterpretations.
