Lighting of Character

This week we have worked on lighting of our character as well as a simpler environment. This assignment was, while difficult, a lot of fun. In my opinion it instantly made the ”character build” drawing look better. Hopefully the picture looks as good to others as it did to me!
Still had some issues with getting together a collection of the artwork I’ve made so far, but as soon as I have it all in one place I will put it up here to be able to compare the pictures to show the progress I’ve made so far!

Last weeks assignment

Last week we worked on building up our characters by taking one of our thumbnails, adjusting its pose and finally filling in details. The biggest problem I had with this assignment was making the head (both helmet and face) look right. After having made a number of versions of the helm I realized that the problem probably lay in the design of the helmet. Eventually I managed to create one that I was somewhat satisfied with. This week however while doing the turnarounds of our characters I decided to fix the helm up properly and got some help with how to draw faces. From time to time it feels like I’m about to miss the deadline, but so far I haven’t missed one yet. Going to start uploading some pictures from the start of the course up until now, but at the moment I don’t have all the pictures I want to include in digital form.
