Full body

Here is a full body view of a previous character design.

Improvement

So I only started this style of drawing yesterday, in 24 hours I have done an extra two drawings and I have to say, I can already see a vast improvement.
Here is the first:

A queen, but this time I tried to draw hair. I also added veins and ageing to her skin. As my mum pointed out her hair seemed a bit static and as if it was a later addition, so I did another design:

This time a Disney/Pixar Brave inspired warrior. I tried to add more life to the eyes and expression, I also tried to make the hair less static by adding wisps and a broader range of colour. On top of that I added a few 'imperfections' which includes a mole on his right shoulder and a scar on his left.

I am proud with how quickly I have improved with this technique and I hope to keep getting better.

Character designs

Here are a load of character designs I did, first is a Faun:

Secondly is a man, that seems to have got himself into a bit of trouble. First I sketched it in Photoshop to get an idea of the character, then I modelled it in 3D coat to get a better idea of form and the shadow. Then lastly I moved it back into Photoshop to colour texture and add detailing.

Teaparty

As a short four week project at uni we have to create a tea party scene in Rhino and Maya then animate it. Instead of a tea party I have decided to create a tea party that has erupted into a fight scene. Even though I don't need to create people for it I think I might just as a challenge for me.

3D Coat Helmet

I drew this bird inspired helmet on 3D coat, a brilliant little programme! If you've never hear of it, it is basically a 3D modelling programme that allows you to sculpt an object much like if you were sculpting in clay. It is really good for organic and unusual shapes, you are also able to UV map and render to create a realistic image. Unfortunately I am only using a trial and have a couple of days left on it, so I might just have to buy it because I love it so much.

Old Designs

Here are a few old design drawings I did during college during early 2011. I believe... well I hope my techniques and designs have improved, but just incase I think I'll do some practicing so I'm a pro when I start uni.

Exhibition

Here is me with my work at my college's art and design exhibition. These were the designs, boards and models from my personality project.
