This is the original concept of Akuma. I focused on his anatomy, fashion, and colour coding. He's inspired by ninjas and samurai - wielding two cutlasses as his main weapons. A mask similar to Riley's covers his face, being the ying to her yang.
This is the sculpt of Akuma. I decided part-way through the sculpt he was too similar to my first year project, and decided to switch his mask from being an eye mask to a mask that covers his mouth, using Japanese demon masks as inspiration.
This is the low-poly topology of the character.
This is the UV layout for the character.
This is the final textured version of Akuma. I tried to follow the colour scheme of the original concept. Furthermore, I've included the different UV sets.
