Character Body Development



My Character is going to be a robotic skeleton under a loose fabric skin, because of this the skin will hang down from the skeleton showing the shape of it slightly in certain parts.

Character Head Development



In the first image their wasnt enough facial features so in the second page i experimented with the shape and features.

Second Character Idea



I felt my first character was too generic so i desided to create a charcter that was more unique. This is my initial sketch but i will go on to develop him more as i want to give him more facial features aswell as hands.

First Character Idea



This is my first idea for my character, i wanted him to be a rogue/ assassin character so i tryed to make him stealthy with weapons that could be easily concealed.

Research

9 is a good film for me to look into as the characters are similar to mine in the fact that they are also rag doll like characters but each one is quite different so hopefully i will be able to get inspiration from more than one character from this animation.

 This 3D model has a very similar body shape to what i am wanting for my character. I like how the skin of the character is wrinkled up which makes it look more alive as they are mostly around joints.




edit: throughout this module 9 has been a massive influence, so much so that I have watched the film multiple times over the last couple of months to study how the characters move and act as-well as a way to get new ideas for my own character.

Mood Board 2


For this mood board i looked at different rag doll characters as my charcter is going to be based on rag dolls.

My first research into charcters, looking into stealthy charcters.
