character models and art styles

day 3

i have been gathering more research on my character that i am going to create, i have changed my first character which was a wolf to a human with a wolf headdress because i believe it would be hard to create wolf that can be moved so i changed it to a person, so that it would be easier to create the face.

 

I have been doing some more research on different art styles and this has helped me find new and eventful ways to create art styles.

the only problem i am having today is that i have not looked in some books for more research on game levels and different types of vibes you get from the environments because i want the player to be on their toes in certain areas, but i will look in the books for ideas tomorrow.

art style & book research

today i have been working on my research and adding what it is that i am planing to create most of my research has been done online but i have also done some offline like looking in books and looking at some art on the walls of town near afflecks palace they have helped me think of a new types of worlds and themes, i looked in the book called game plan by Ste Curran and that helped me think of a game in 2D. i am going with this idea because i what to take to make a world and vibe.
i will add the pictures when my phone will let me upload the images.

This is a picture of some art in Manchester (town) that inspired me to think of the world that i am going to create and have envisioned in my mind,
the colour of the blue girl and the dark background make her stand out like a neon sign on a building.
 this colours will help me create the world i am aiming to build.


this image lets me show what type of styled game i am going to create with the blue girl and her neon glow and the dark background.

character designs

Today I have been looking for research on the computer on character models and what it is the PG 12 rating will approve in the game such as violence sexual references nudity and drugs, it will allow a small degree of nudity and some violence but it will not have any drug use sexual references, you can also have some bad language but it has to be mild and the violence cannot have blood and gore.

All in all I have just looked up some info from my brief so I can better understand what it is I am good to create for my audience.

Some images I used  

(3D character)





                                                                                 (pixel)

doing the shell shaded style (sonic) will let me create a cartoon/cool looking character model

and this will help me because i want the players to be able to relate to the character as if they them selves are the character, and that is my goal

(shell shaded/sonic)

the images help me show the different types of character models and lets me to show which one i am going for (create)
