Florian Neumann's work is on point.
Have a look at Florian Neumann's new work inspired by the new Ranma 1/2 adaptation for Netflix. Ranma and Akane might look like they do in the anime, but they are actually made in 3D.
Neumann used Maya with toon shaders for modeling and rendering and Substance 3D Painter for masks and textures.
"I created these two busts after starting the new Ranma 1/2 show on Netflix. They’re modeled to resemble two shots from the original opening!"
After he was done with the sculpt and adjusted the normals, Neumann created basic UVs for the hair and painted two simple masks in Substance 3D Painter.
"At the end, I duplicated the mesh, inverted its normals, applied a black surface shader, and adjusted the distance from the original mesh slightly in some areas. This created the outline effect."
Neumann loves anime if his renders are anything to go by. We've seen a Dragon Ball Z iconic scene and Goku from there in his works, and I'm sure we'll enjoy more in the future.
You might have also seen his talent in skins for Overwatch 2, Apex Legends, and Forza Horizon 5.
