So I started on my pauldron for my character! Still not finished, but its been a good learning session. Finding out what brushes to use. Learning how to mimic the Blizzard detail. It truly combines my love of painting and modeling. I often used bakes to base my paintings off of, so this has been a fun challenge for me!
I also have been taking the opportunity to learn 3ds Max on this, and a little bit of Blender for the base texture & design layout.
