Our next port of call

Hey guys, congrats on all of us successfully finishing character Design but now we have only 5 weeks, (7 including Christmas)  to get our trailer up and running. Unfortunately I will not be in till Wednesday but I will be modelling. Ryan suggested that I create New new York and Old New York, but I think someone is going to have to of course start modelling our characters.

So with that I don't mind modelling the Detective and Victim as soon as Ryan does the turnarounds. In the mean time I can model as much as I can with New, new York. If you Paul could start modelling Old New York straight away as Ryan has already put up the turnarounds for the buildings.

When you Ryan finish the turnarounds for the characters you could take over modelling New, new York ( including the office) from me and I'll get to work on the characters. I'm not confident in doing the characters but I was do them them right. I'll rig, UV and Skin them as well.

Comment Please you guys to see if this is okay plan to follow.

Old Broadway Concept Revisited and Orthographic Images

New New York Landmark Orthograph Images

Providing a few orthographic images for specific landmarks in our New New York scene so we can start modelling while I'm working on finishing off the environment and character concepts.

When it comes to modelling Old Broadway, as well as the concepts I'll be providing orthographic images for the building layouts. For the Theatre and Detective Office - the props as well as the general layout. Or do you guys feel confident enough that we can work off the concept art after what's already been given?

Because they're large images. The Side, Front and 3Q reference images for the Landmark One's modelling are attached within the buttons below. Should be able to line them up via blue lines. Let me know how it goes.

Concept Art: Victim Action Pose - Experimentaion

From feedback, the concept art produced of the victim has a number of visual flaws which undermine her personality.

The initial concept art depicted her as a sexy femme fatale archetype, posing in confidence. The personality of the victim had later developed into containing more delicate and slightly rugged personality traits.

As part of development into the revamping of her concept art. Below is a few experiments with the victim's action poses and body language. Some more may be posted at a later date for further variety.

Female Victim

Now " Mighty Antlhers" would be way to hard and tough for our female character. however I still want to retain a sculpted look for her.
