So, one of my units for 3rd year is a master-class project, where we chose from a selection of briefs from different companies/lecturers and then you get about 4 weeks or so to do it (its expected to take up about 2 weeks of dedicated time).
I chose the character design master-class from Sony Cambridge, and so, I am designing a boss character for a Ratchet & Clank game
I did a fair few concepts, but then found this little doodle in one of my sketchbooks and thought the silhouette was really nice, and with a bit more character could work.
So I made it into a crusader style knight/robot. Currently going by the fairly unimaginative 'Mr.Knight'. Quite pleased with the weight and humour of this concept, though I really need to make sure the limbs are consistent in design and do more research into crusader-era armour.
Trying to figure out the 3D shape and weighting of the character I made a mock up of the design so far using articles from my 'interesting materials' box. In total it took about 4 hours to make.
And this is me posing it for photos for some idea of scale.
