#WIP01- Rila Cyborg
I have been a fan of Tron when it first came out and it's sequel decades later. Along with the recent excellent film Alita I wanted to create a character that had elements of both of these styles of movie. The character of Yukio from the Wolverine film was also a character that I also wanted to add in. I would combine elements from all 3 characters and use the likeness of Rila Fukoshima as a starting point in Character Creator

#WIP02 - Rila Cyborg
Starting off with Headshot I created a new character base. I then used SkinGen to add the textures to the character. I then took this into Makeup to add some foundation and make up, 
I then used the appearance editor to create some clothing sticking to a red & black combination.
To start adding in Tron like cyber details to the clothing I created glow maps for the boots and gloves.
I chose the hair and created a tint map to add red to this as well.

#WIP03 - Rila Cyborg
I started to build up the cyborg elements starting with creating a new texture for the right eye.
To add more details to this side of the face I tried different mixtures of adding in tattoo and sub surface lights using the decal in Make Up section.
I also changed the hairstyle so the side of the face wouldn't get covered up too much.
