Baldur's Gate 4 fan art - Character creator

Hello everyone

I’m thrilled to share my latest project. I wanted to create my version of what could possibly be the Baldur's gate 4 character creator. I've always love to customize my adventurer when I start a new game and when I played Baldur's Gate 3, I was amazed by the amount of details on their characters. I wanted to create something highly inspired by it, but with a fresher look.

This project was also an opportunity to go through A LOT of aspects of game developpement. I modeled and textured the character with Zbrush and Substance Painter. I rigged and skinned it with Maya. I created the hair groom with Xgen. Within Unreal engine 5, I created many blueprints and materials in order to create the gameplay level and UI. Shout out to my friend @Louis-Alexandre Louchard for all the work on the environment. Collaborating with him was not only a pleasure, but it brought the project to that professional level that I wanted.
