Serac the Seal (2018)

sketchfab

I'm excited to showcase our latest creation, a Courier for Dota 2 developed in collaboration with Shaylyn Hamm. I handled rigging and animation, while she focused on modeling and texturing. Our work caught the attention of Valve and was released as part of the first Frostivus 2018 treasure! Make sure to check out the animation list, featuring a selection of animations that can be viewed from various angles. This project is an updated version of our initial submission from last year. Significant changes have been made: the design has been revamped, materials upgraded, and animations modified to accommodate the model's new look. I also took this opportunity to add a rare flying idle animation. Note that the animations on Sketchfab differ slightly from the final in-game version, particularly with regards to the front flippers in the ground idle position. For those interested in spotting the differences, you can find our older submission here: https://sketchfab.com/models/808282cd1bc14a3094f18b25e763ad3e
