2D Project - Character Sheet

Not alot to say here, (other than i totally changed some the design again, but im totally stable on it now)



Im actually really pleased how this whole design came out, even after a ton of alterations i think i finally came to a design i was content with showing.

Also since this is usually one of the later things i manage to come up with, i've decided to name her Claire. Nothing too ostentatious but a nice name.

If i could change anything it would probably have been to experiment less earlier on when it didnt really add to my design, in the sense that it left me a bit high and dry in terms of time to allocate everything, also i wish i could have put more time into everything as i had an absolute blast doing everything.

Week 5 - Perspective introduction

Image
Just a quick update to the blog, and on time i might add; this week we covered an introduction to perspective drawing, with us being tasked to do some tutorials to produce 1 point perspective drawings, which means the origin point of all of the parallel lines all converge on a single point to show a "depth" in an image, with the examples showing a room in a house and a underpass of a abandoned highway. It was really interesting to cover these, and a change of pace for my usual style of drawing due to how technical they were to set up the objects in the image, though that meant it was overall more well put together (though a little rigid) the second piece i coloured a little giving subtle colours to help capture the bleakness of this apocalyptic style setting.

2D Project - Promo Poster Design - Thumbnails (getting that characterisation in)

Image
When thinking about a promo image (like a wallpaper) I figured the best thing to do was to test the waters with some thumbnails for the composition and posing of the piece, and thus i came up with these. The idea was that i was trying to get in a bunch of different idea's quickly and without worrying too much about anatomy for the moment so that i could focus best on what design captured my characters...character. so to start that off i listed some of the keywords to associate my character with to help me figure out while i was drawing these, and to on reflection look at these designs and pick one out as a winner. Since the character is a paladin of sorts, the stoic attribute means i want something strong and impressive as far as posing goes in order to capture her strength, while wrathful is meant to indicate her somewhat violent nature when angered, so in this case i also wanted her to appear imposing or like she would end you if you crossed her. Lastly she is both holy ...

Maya Modelling Challenge - Part 2

Image
And so it continues; my work for the maya modeling challenge received a while ago; I decided to refine some of my geometry by using the mirror cut tool to cut the skirting board I made last time to achieve a more even cut, it took a while though to realize I needed to set the option to "discrete rotate" so that it would angle round without leaving gaps. Additionally i also started blocking out the main structure of the model using simple geometry just so i could better visualise the rest of the elements on the model. Added the roof of part of the building i was modelling, tapering the vertices at the top using scaling and then using the vertices loop tool to create the more accurate to image shape. Also angled these triangles inwards to capture the slant on all sides of the image. Also got a chance to do more mirror cuts by cutting that shape and creating the back laying building. More mirror cuts, wow this tool is really handy for making use of geo...
