Tapu // Personal Work

Tapu, a Maori demi-god fisherman, has godlike strength.
He has a massive Spirit Cannon that an ordinary mortal can't use due to his size and godlike powers. Altho it seems easy for Tapu.
I took inspiration for this project from Overwatch, Sea Of Thieves, Moana, and Arcane. I was trying to achieve the Blizzard look with a mix of handpainted.
I wanted to give my version of Tapu a "Competetive Strong Man" like Eddie Hall, Martins Licis, Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, and Brian Shaw. as you can tell, I'm a massive fan of World Strongest Man smiling_face.
A Good reference board is vital!
The project was created with Zbrush, Maya, and Substance Painter and rendered in Unreal Engine 5
"The fisherman uses the spirit of the sea to harness energy into tar balls harvested from human oceanic contamination, which become fuel
for his magic-infused sacred totem." as described by Benjamin Karr
