Underware Ninjas

Project done while at Aquifer based on characters for the overnight underware product for children.
I was tasked with the high poly, low poly, bake, texture and blendshapes for the character. They were used as a base for other male character, with the option to make the female characters from the base too. Special blendshapes (outside of the normal 52) were created for the shadow 2d mouth.
Art direction and lighting by Dean May.
