Quay, Second Design.

Just finished work on my Zbrush class character design. I'm hoping to take this character and bring him to 3D in 3Ds Max, then learn how to make him sparkle in Zbrush. Gonna try doing some basic modeling tomorrow.

Quay is basically a 'rejected' character design from Skyward Sword. He's a 'racing' minigame NPC that I thought would have worked really well with his Beamos-themed 'Skywing' contraption... but since the game engine couldn't really make the whole loftwing flight section feel fast, the idea of a racing minigame was cut from the final game. I imagine Quay would have raced Link at some point or another, and due to his loss, he would tell Link he would never give up on his dream to deliver messages anywhere in the sky at the speed of light... indeed he would have grown up to be the very first 'Postman' of the Hyrule mythos, carrying down the line to all the great delivery masters that Link has met in his incarnations.
