Bowser Starcraft Contest
CharacterContestLow PolyArchival
2012 Indie Vault contest piece reimagining Bowser as a Starcraft-style character under strict low-poly and texture constraints.
The story
This is an archival contest piece from Indie Vault: the prompt was to imagine a character from one game universe inside another. The result was a Starcraft-flavoured Bowser built under strict real-time constraints.
Technical highlights
- 6000-triangle character constraint from the original contest brief.
- Single 512px diffuse and normal workflow.
- Concept, model, hand-painted detail, and Marmoset presentation.
Outcome
Published on ArtStation as an early personal contest piece. It is useful here because it shows low-poly discipline and the older character-art foundation behind later technical work.
