"Korg has two friends, Miek and Biff. Can you explain in details about their design and creation?" Kevin Souls: "Miek was a shared asset with Framestore, but we built our own custom shaders. Biff was a ground up build. Based off previs and concept art, our character supervisor Mathieu Aerni made a very high resolution sculpt. We used reference of rhinoceros for the skin and then added peach fuzz. The cloth needed to completely roll and slide off his body, our rigging supervisors Thana Siripopungul and Marcos Romero created a special rig and cloth setup to simulate the heavy leather and thick burlap."
