This is Dedlee, heavy metal band Caught Within's mascot.
I animated a 5 minute music video for the song "World We Know", You can find the full video on the bands YouTube page here: https://youtu.be/D2y-XGlyPZM?si=XhWQ_7g3ZfIdz4O4
This was a commissioned project. I sculpted this character in Blender and used a high to low poly workflow. I then baked and textured the model in Substance Painter and rigged using Accurig. The spike studs were created using Blenders geometry node particle system. This made for a lighter weight character that was still heavily populated.
