Jam Bolide (Metro Jammers)
A character in the canon of the stellar musician Memodemo. This piece was made to celebrate the release of the Metro Jammers concept album. (https://memodemo.bandcamp.com/album/metro-jammers)
The character was developed by Memodemo (https://twitter.com/mem0dem0) and this render of her is based on illustrations by Strovi (https://twitter.com/strovi_)
I absolutely adore the universe that Memo has created and I'm always awestruck by strovi's illustrations! I can't resist bringing them into 3D, especially when the concept albums are created as soundtracks to video games that don't exist (yet?)
Pose and background based on the one in this tweet (https://twitter.com/mem0dem0/status/1305928810676678656?s=20).
Jam's expressions are usually joyful ones.
A closeup of Jam's skates. The material I came up with here is designed to always have a perfect shine no matter the angle, although though when used outside of controlled shots (i.e. 360 camera) it snaps.
