Technical Exercise - Male in Winter Clothing

To show more of my technical skill I created this exercise for myself.

It is made up by 53 444 quads/106 888 tris.

You can see my general workflow by going from the bottom of the page and upwards towards the finished product.

These are the final two versions. One clean and one with a light snow finish.

In addition to the clean version of the character I wanted to see what kind of snow effects I could create using Substance Painter. I was going for a light snow look, using only the texture layers.

The finer detail on the clothing such as thread and buttons I created in Substance Painter, the larger variations in the clothing was sculpted in zbrush.

The head was textured in Zbrush using polypaint, as I prefer moving back and forth with sculpting and texturing of fine detail such as the hair and pores of the skin. This render is from Marmoset Toolbag.

I moved into Zbrush to sculpt additional detail, remove unwanted polygons and re-topologize the garment created in Marvelous Designer. 
I also created the rest of the model pieces in zbrush and Maya.
Most of the texturing was done in Substance Painter.

I used Marvelous Designer to create the winter pants and jacket. The double layering of the clothing with a slight scale variation helps create the padded look I desired.
