Chears

I stumbled upon a tutorial to model an ear, so i gave it a go. Unfortunately it produces a mesh with 600ish polys so i wont be using it on my final model, however i believe we have to hand in a copy of out face so if i can attach it to my head then ill have a pair of nice ears.

Tries

Ive attempted to model the boots, and have produced a very crude pair. Im definitely going to rework them some more once ive blocked out the rest of the characters armour and maybe even the weapons. I had a spot of difficulty around the base of the boots as i cant figure a way of looping them without the forming a triangle, ill have to come back to it and see if i can spot a better way to model it.

Faces

I returned to the face, and added the back of the head and neck in. I struggled somewhat around the ear and im pretty sure i could do a better job but im going o leave it for a bit and come back to it. So yer, still needs alot of work but i think its coming along nicely. Im looking forward to modelling the ear should involve alot of cursing.

Quads

Ive attached the hands and arms together and target welded the arm to the chest piece, i found that by chance i had created the perfect amount of polys around the arm socket for the arm to attach directly to it. This wasnt the case for the legs as i had to do some jiggery-pokery to get them to align i think i got it right, but i may have a few too many polys as this comes in at 2320.

Meet Isaiah

Ive drawn up blueprints for my weapons and added them to a concept sheet.
The bow is a hybrid between a long and short bow, somewhere in between the shape gives extra power and range and the wood is made from a single spanish yew tree.

The atomiser is a compact shotgun style pistol, firing a mixture of penetration and blunt impact rounds for a devastating single shot.

Shadows

Added a slight shadow to the front perspective which adds a bit of depth to the overall image. also been working on weapons concepts but haven't got anything finalised yet.

Blueprints.

At first i was inking in my sketches to scan in then rework in photoshop. Then our tutor showed us this very laborious but very nifty technique to produce blueprints. Im quite fond of the result it produces so might do some concepting using it. anyway heres my blueprints:

tablets

Ive not had much chance to use my tablet so far since i got it so i decided to spend some time working with it in photoshop and have produced these two concept. They could be alot better but im pleased at how they have turned out for my first effort.

The guy on the left i was going for a ninja-esque medieval look, with his time travel device being the guantlet equipped with a long bow and sword.

The guy next to him i took inspiration from faramir's traveling cloak and diablo II's chain mail boots, gave him a dagger and a time travelling cloak clasp.
