for starters i have created some sketches, vague sketches, due to the fact all items for any character would be chosen from personal preference, so i wrote about the basics of the different Armour which could be used, clothing and sword type!
these are all basic sketches and annotations of the basic Armour requirements you'll need in a battle, such as leg plate, chest plate, arm plate etc etc
next i did some character designs i did 3 character designs as i did have a few basic ideas in my head, but i wanted to make 3 very detailed drawings of my ideas and pick which one i liked the most
the see through areas of clothing are created from plasma, it is all basically plasma Armour, it will protect you from bullets and lasers,
orthographics
this was my first attempt at creating the orthorgraphics for my
character, it didnt go well as nothing really matched up with the size
of the face/ the shape etc, it all looked quite messy to be honest, so i
kept trying to improve it
this is some of my improvements, here i am working on the shaping of the head and how to draw heads in a different way, which is alot better than what i was doing before, doing this method which is kind of shown make this alot more align with each other, and even
here are my final orthorgraphics, where i have the side and front shot, and an attempt at doing a 45 degree angle shot, these orthorgraphics are alot better then the first attempt, as these ones line up correctly, they are alot more even, the shape has improved.
drawing my character
this is an action stance (sort of) of my character, both traditionally drawn and digitally, the one on the right is meerly a quick sketch where as the one on the left is to show colour and the detail/ plasma of the sword etc.Creating my characters head
CLAY
here is the small bust i created of my character out of some more special type of clay, it isn't 100% accurate but i was able to get some hair spikiness in, the shoulder plates, and also the bandages around the right eye.
mud box is a software used for creating models of any kind, i used a simple bust model to create my character, now for this part of the project i was meant to put it into maya and make it look pretty (render it to add light/ shadow/ effect to it) but i have no idea how to do that ( seriously ive done research upon it , ive asked people and i still cant do it) so i took some screen shots of my bust instead at many different angles! seeing as this was my first ever attempt at creating something like this, it obviously isn't going to be great.
Digital orthorgraphics
for another part of my project i was to create digitalized orthorgraphics of my character, due to certain circumstances, i was only able to do thios drawing last minute, so it looks quite rough and rushed, but the basic shape and detail needed (in my opinion) is on there. i did most of the deatil on the first front view picture and less detail on the side view as i mainly just wanted to show the shape of the head, to show it has some dimensions and cuves/ shape to it and isnt just a flat face.
(needs some editing)
Character back story
Information:
Name: Rose Sinclair
Age: 22
Born: 16th march 2945
Faction/guild: Emerald
Rose Sinclair lives in the year 2967, where everything is run
by plasma energy. After the year 2900, the world got split into two, the east,
and the west, and since they split, they have been at war with each other to
see who could be the rightful rulers of the earth, another reason they are at
war, is because the west side own most of the plasma energy in the world, the
east have hardly any, so they decided to declare war against the west
The east
For the east to declare war, they took all materials and
plasma energy they had into creating powerful machinery and robots/ mechas to
destroy those of the west side, killing the people, destroying the land and
taking all plasma energy they could, they thought that once they have obtained
all the energy and killed all those who belong in the west, they could live
peaceful lives, with upgrading their machinery even more to advance their lives
seeing as they would have a lot more plasma, so they could not only live on
longer, and in better conditions but everything will be equal again
The west
The west were peaceful, and rich in energy until they got
attacked by the east, it took a while before the west could fight back, using
their high amount of plasma energy, they were able to create weapons and armour
strong enough to withstand attacks from the machinery, and attack back,
defending themselves and those around them, those who would fight for the west
west where split into 4 groups: sapphire, ruby, emerald and diamond. These are
basically the different factions throughout the west, it shows what rank you are
in, the elite fighters would be in diamond, emerald would just be below diamond
then it would follow by sapphire and ruby, ruby being the worst fighters, so
they were usually made to upgrade weapons, and Armour.
Rose
Rose lived her life in safety as her family where put up to
fight the east and not her, even though this war has been going on for almost a
century, she has wondered why it hasn’t yet ended. However she noticed the west
began to develop more and become more powerful as she got older, by the age of
12 her parents got upgraded to the diamond faction so she pretty much felt
safe, she didn’t have to worry about this war, or worry about having to
becoming a fighter, yet she secretly trained by swinging a sword around now and
then and sparing with her friends By the
age of 18 she was forced to start fighting for the west, usually you would
start at an early age, however rose was hidden for quite a while, as she was
too scared to fight, her family got killed by the east when she was only 16, so
it resulted in her hiding away, she was found though 2 years later, however
because of her unnatural fighting skills, which she was able to develop mainly
on pure adrenalin and plasma energy which she was able to fuse with her own
body (kind of like drug taking, if you swallow, sniff and inject the plasma
energy into you, you will get side affects which can be permanent, which is
what happened to her) she was ranked into the emerald fraction not too long
after joining the fight, she was however offered to join the diamond fraction,
but declined as, just a mention of the diamond faction bought back memories of
her dead family, which caused her to have a terrifying but dramatic mental
break down.
She wears a white dress, with green plasma Armour on top of
it to deflect any robotic attacks; her weapon consists of a large green plasma
great sword, which can be turned into a plasma rifle by a few flicks of the
wrist.
evaluation
overall i think this project was okay, it was fun doing something ive never done before, but trying to get it all done in a matter of 2 weeks is a little tricky for me as i do get ill alot and have to miss out quite abit, which means i have to try and get certain software at home so i can do the work i need to, i disliked creating the heads with the clay, as clay can dry really fast so if you dont work fast you cant make your model, and i can't do fast, i prefer to take my time with things. making a 3d model in mud box is alot easier,however the software is faulty and easily crashes and breaks, so it is quite hard to get anything done under these circumstances. as said the photoshop/ digital drawing was done last minute, i cant work photoshop, it isnt my favorite software, so it is difficult for me to draw on it, overall this project may have been fun but it was difficult, mainly because i was using things for the first time and we only had 2 weeks to do it, so it was a bit of a rush.
