KONYAK Tribe

These Headhunters are the last of their kind.
Konyak Tribe of Nagaland.

with this project, I wanted to learn realism, understand skin better. The skin detail was made by using HD geo Feature in Zbrush with alpha brushes I made in photoshop for pores and wrinkles. All skin detail is hand-sculpted and for the skin texture, I hand-painted it in Substance Painter.
Lookdev was done in Maya with Arnold.

*creepy fact: The number of heads on the pendant conveys how many heads they beheaded, they also used to keep the heads as trophies of war.
