Celebrate the world in colour with me! Finally, I’m working out a colour scheme for one of these characters. I really want this guy to be rendered so he seems to be in a different space to the other characters. His worlds gonna be one of colour and plastic delight! Im going for a real simple scheme, classic baby I call it, powder blue and pink. Hopefully he’s starting to look a bit like a crap Fisher Price toy.
That stupid sploge on his head has got to go soon, but before I got onto the actual proper work of making the hat look any good, I chucked in a lovely curly aeriel that`ll bend around like Billy o’ when he moves about.
I’ve been trying to refine the silhouette on this character. Working out the old nose and in with a new one that makes the robot look more infanitle, and more creepy.
An ambient occlusiuon, and a quick material render, of the current face. The jaws only got an up down motion, but then all this character really needs to do is zoom around in a small car smashing into things! WEEEE!
Its completly ovious, but the eye spots are added with a brush in photoshop after. Thats one click of the mouse for each spot! How`d you like them apples?
Heres a close up of the jaw currently. Its the most complicated mechanical peice in the model. As soon as I can work out how to imbed videos I’ll slip one right in to one of these entries.
Quick experinent I did while itterating on the face shapes. I thought I might go for a cut up, I-robot look. Looked shit. Do not want.
A few big boy posts to come here. I’ve been offline, or working to hard to touch this stuff for a year and a half now! NOOO! Still, finally i’m back, redesigned the site a bit. You like? In my spare seconds i’ve been cracking on the 3rd character for the movie, and its coming along finally. But first - check out this pic of how it started. HHHMMMM…. Not feeling it yet?
