I was so engrossed when creating this character for myself that I forgotten to show most of the progress but it still is something I would like to share. The software I used is called Magicavoxel and it's free for download which is really good. It is a very easy software to learn and is equiped to build voxel art like this one fast.

For this piece, I decided to call him Clark because he looks like a Clark. It took me around 2 hours from sculpting to the finished product.

I started off by creating his body. I decided to let him wear a hoodie with an innercoat because it looks comfy and I used to love wearing hoodies when the weather isn't so hot in Malaysia. Decided to also give him an inner blue shirt.

Then I proceeded to build his head. The thing about voxel is that you need to have sufficient blocks to be able to have symmetrical or more specific details to be sculpted. For example, If I created his head smaller, there wouldn't be enough area/space for his eyes to fit into his glasses frame. I had to include the dark thick framed glasses because that's part of my identity. I wing a dark thick and not to mention, huge glasses.

Of course, Clark's got more hair than what I currently have but let's just pretend I am as good looking as this voxel character ey?

And there you have it. My very own character. I also use this as my profile picture for my e-commerce shop on Redbubble selling voxelart. I would be sharing some voxel animals that I've created in my next post. Let me know what you think!
