Model 3: Even Further

this is yet another test i conducted, i was still getting the hang of modelling, these are just basic shapes that im using, im trying to see how i could use them in my final project. here is the head and the body of the third chaacter. nothing is final yet. this is only a test.



this was the body, i was using different colors, red and black are a sybol of hell and death, i was trying to utilies these shades, unfortuneatly i didnt use them in the final character design.



here is the character completed, i had it jumping over an object to see what it would look like in actual gameplay. the character is a basic shape, the colors are simple but effective. i do like this model, it would be perfect for a childs game or an arcade game.





 here are some facial expressions, again im not using any of this character for my final design. model one is the final design. i was using different facial expressions so i could maybe implement them into my final character, but it was slightly hard beause my character was a reptile looking creature so there wasnt much facial expressions. again this character would have been great for a childs game or even an arcade game.

Model 2: Getting Somewhere


here is the model completed, it was just a basic model, not a part of the final designs, just a test, the color scheme was inspired by alice in wonderland, this model would have been good for a childs game, but where not making that, this is just a test as ive stated before.




here is the model in full, it is not completed, just an over view of what ive done so far.
 thi is just the model still in the making, this is not a model it is just a test.



here is the head design, it is not meant to be apart of the final design, like i said its just to see what i could come up with, i havent done any designs for this character.



this is just a test that i came up with, its not meant to be part of the final design, it was just to see if i could come up with different designs and shapes.

Model 1: The Beginning

as mentioned before, i will be using cinema 4d, i find it slightly easier to use, here are a few models i made, i did find them hard to model at first but i got the hang of it. Here you see the final design for my first concept character, i think i will be using this for my final, but i will have made others to compare them.

here is the head i modeled, i wanted to deform the head slightly, so here is me attempting to sculpt the head, i didnt have to do much, i found this model quite fun to design actually, it was pretty good. I think i will deffinately use this model for the final.



here is the design without any details, the head is sculpted and i added a cube in its stomach to suggest its power source, so it comes up with evil spirits, like th character was suggested in the first place. this is without any details. so far i am pleased with what i have accomplished.

Reffrence: The Film - "The Reptile"

 the Reptile, taken from the movie with the same name, is a horror film from the 1960's.


 this is the cover from the film the reptile.







Here are a few images from the film the reptile, i will be getting my inspiration from this movie along with a few more, this image is significant to me because of its look, its very old and legendary look, it looks like a myth, and myths are good because no body believes in them, which is why im taking elemts fro this character to my own design.

Reffrence: Reptiles

 Because people seemed to have a problem with me making my characters to humainoid and more superhero like, I had to redisgn my whole character, The original was to have some kind of animal look to it, So what ive done is keep the animalistic look but change it to a reptile, because reptiles have always been apart of everyday life, in this life and the one before, With this reffrence i got a lizard, because a lizard is a creature tyhat can move fast, has great agility and can blend it to its surroundings.




This image if from the films "The Reptile" which was released in 1966, It was a horror film, Ive decided to take some elements from this film in homage to the film itself and the module and characters within the game.
