World and character of Avaritia:

Set in an alternate world, were demons and angels hide themselves among humans, each time they encounter, they take on their true form, and have a furious battle to the death, a constant waging war between Heaven and Hell. Some of these demons are more powerful than others, and Avaritia is one of the most powerful. Being a physical manifestation of the sin of greed, Avarita brandishes a lot of lavish and valuable riches, though he does not take kindly to the greedy. He will try and fool those who are greedy into taking from him, were he will then consume the unfortunate victim, and turn them into one of his many lavish items. By giving him a valuable item, you will confuse him, giving you a brief chance to escape a deadly fate

Model Description:

This large beast has 4 powerful legs it uses to charge at its enemies. His large open mouth allows him to swallow his enemies whole, using his razor sharp teeth the grind them down into a pulp. His mighty staff has become shattered from many deadly battles, but the staff is powerful enough to bind itself back together. He can use it to unleash deadly and ferocious attacks, leaving destruction in its path. His big bag of loot is a token to all his past victims, each rupee, gem and skull being one of his previous victims. His large antlers make him seem much more intimidating, and he uses these to ram at his enemies. He's a master of deception, using a rupee on his tongue to try and real you in, so next time you see a gem lying on the floor, it may be a good idea to leave it alone...

Development information: 

I first started with some concept sketches to iron out my idea. I then began modelling in Maya, using my sketches as a reference. I went through a lot of different iterations of this model until I felt happy with it. After finishing the modelling, I textured the model in Substance 3D Painter. After adding the textures and feeling happy with them, I imported it into Unity to add the lighting, and after that it was finished.
