Week 02 Character Concept

Here we are its the new post of the week, well iv decided to to a few. Rather than have loadsa stuff all crumpled into one post ill do one for each separate area of the week. It'll be easier to navigate, structure and it'll be easier on the old eyes.

First I'm gonna go into character concept, now i had 4 characters to begin with but while i was working through the story we realised one was inconsequential who brought nothing to the table in terms of telling the story, So we culled that dead weight with little or no remorse. Saves on work dunnit. But for your enjoyment ill add here character design that i did cause i think its pretty.

The rest of the characters have now been finalised the boy and 13 have changed little and we as a team feel happy with there finalised design. We did however have a little trouble with the antagonist (the wolf creature) that attacks 13 and the boy.

We all new who he was and what he needed to be so myself Rob and Jay each had a crack at it. In the end mine was chosen to go forward. Robs was a little complex with lots of wires and Fur (fur being incredibly difficult to simulate in Maya) and jays looked so evil you'd imagine it pissed pure malevolence. This character is supposed to be wild not evil.
