Entry 31: New programmes

This week, I have identified certain aspects of my characters appearance that I find appeal to the Victorian era.

I find that these concepts are close to a final idea, the colour scheme on the third character to me, has a greater appeal due to the colour scheme that has a unique appeal with a certain style.

I feel that I have had an opportunity to create a character within a set ideal.

 My research to find items such as a weapons such as the incapacitation v1; a weapon with a more paralysis affect to its opponent. 

I have started the process of creating the face using my own face, as a way to learn this process.

In which, I used a technique called 'edge copy', I have found this process challenging in terms shorter deadlines and more professional practices.


Finally, other items such as a time travelling fob watch and a futuristic taser disguised as walking stick.

Entry 30: Year 2

Last week,  I have learnt the new process and programmes to learnt e.g. mudbox as well as learning new skills with the programmes that I know how to use.

Character Modelling

From the brief, The character is a time-travelling bounty hunter with a selection of eras. I have chosen Victorian England, therefore I researched the era in terms of technologies, cultures and fashions.

I have found that from my research most Victorians wore waistcoats as well as considering the stature in society e.g. gentry, middle- class or poor, I feel that I have a basic idea on his appearance from my research.

The brief also states the use of a futuristic weapon as well as one                                                             from the era, I found that I think that I intend to use a weapon to                                                             stun the opponent rather than kill, I feel that I can use my research                                                         to produce a defensive weapon to incapacitate.

                                                    Other projects
                                                    Two other projects are live at the same time, firstly High Poly                                                                 Modelling. This offers me the chance t learn and adapt my skills on                                                       photoshop as well as learning Mudbox.

                                                    Overall, I feel that these will offer me the chance to adapt and learn                                                       new skills.
