Life drawing

Some more life drawing progress pictures. 



I can see clear progress with each session and I am getting quicker at observing form/pose and translating this on paper, as I am finding it much easier to work with quick 1 minute sketches.

Life Drawing

Used different methods in this life drawing class such as drawing left handed and not looking at the paper while sketching.

Sculpting Statue

I am trying to replicate a statue of the Greek goddess Aphrodite, to put in my Greek Colosseum inspired arena. First step is the hair


Modelling Character Statue

Modelling Statue Process


 Connecting the arm to the body


Connecting the legs


Body Connected


Smoothed down


Shaping a bit more..

Added the head, feet and hands to the body and smoothed it down 

Used spheres for the breasts and simply connected them to the mesh and smoothed them down.

UV Unwrapping



Modifying the feet by extruding to create toenails

Steampunk Character Concept

The steampunk character homework we were assigned, I wanted to draw an interesting but simple concept, where you could tell the era the character was coming from, but for the design not to be too overbearing.

Initial Research


Concept sketches 

Here are some initial concept sketches that I did. I liked each idea, but I narrowed it down to keeping the character a female rather than a steampunk inspired robot. 




Final Design

The final concept art took inspiration from the moodboard for the outfit and hat gear, while I changed the face and tweaked the hair. I am happy with how this turned out, however I feel I could have added more to the outfit such as a robotic steampunk arm, or perhaps even a weapon. I also could have spent more time on the actual outfit, making it look as realistic as possible.
