Guabancex – Taíno Inspired Character
This is my interpretation of Guabancex, the Taíno deity associated with storms and the forces of nature. As someone of Puerto Rican heritage, I wanted to create a character inspired by Taíno mythology while exploring my own artistic interpretation through a modern AAA character pipeline.
This project was sculpted in ZBrush, textured in Substance 3D Painter, and rendered in Unreal Engine 5.8. Hair was created in Blender using Hair Tool, with additional work completed in Maya and Marvelous Designer.
Thanks for taking a look!
