Aliku Nadû (Kudû)

Aliku Nadû, meaning "The Clever Repairer” in old Akkadian language.

I’m really excited to finally share this concept. This is the main character I designed for The Extra Mile course's new program and what I use as my demo to cover everything in my workflow from sketching, sculpting, texturing all the way through rendering and compositing.

The Extra Mile new program is opening for enrolment next week and you can check out all the details here: http://www.TheExtraMileCourse.com -> Feel free to message me if you have questions about it!

another quick render just for fun showing Kudû holding the older character of the original TEM course and a smaller version of himself to compare the new content with the 'legacy' content.
