3D CHARACTER MODELING , TEXTURING ,RIGGING & ANIMATION (BEN 10 ALIEN )

Artist: [GAURAV ZADE]
Medium: 3D Character Design & Animation
Software Used: Autodesk Maya, ZBrush, Substance 3D Painter, Adobe After Effects

Description:
"Terraclaw" is a brand-new alien transformation imagined for the Ben 10 universe. This six-armed, battle-hardened creature combines brute strength with alien resilience. Designed with a muscular, insectoid physique and armored, cracked textures revealing glowing energy veins, Terraclaw dominates in close combat situations. A cannon-like appendage emerges from its head, hinting at a ranged energy attack ability.

The character's sculpt was developed in ZBrush, focusing on muscle anatomy and alien proportions. After retopology and UV mapping in Maya, the textures were hand-painted in Substance 3D Painter, incorporating a mix of organic and tech-style surface details, including emissive materials for the glowing cracks. Rigging was fully custom-built in Maya, allowing for dynamic animation of all six limbs and facial components. A short animation showcasing movement and power buildup was composited using Adobe After Effects with atmospheric effects and motion blur.

This project demonstrates a full 3D character pipeline:
✅ Modeling | ✅ Texturing | ✅ Rigging | ✅ Animation

Terraclaw stands as a fearsome addition to the Omnitrix, designed with both story potential and gameplay appeal in mind.
