Silent Comedy : Body and Head

Today I have been doing my best to complete the actual build of the character before I start to add colour and paint him. I still need to add the eyes but I have completed the head, he looks as similar to the sketches as possible and I am reasonably pleased with my outcome although there are a few adjustments I have to make. Here are the screen shot's and render's of the complete character.

Silent Comedy : Body

After completing the top half of the body yesterday I added the legs and shoes today, this was a lengthy process but I think his long skinny limbs will work well and allow me to produce a funny clumsy character. He also has a kind of indie feel to him, I think I will play with this when I add colour and texture's. Here is another screen shot and render from the build of my character so far.

New Brief : Silent Comedy

For one of my new project's I have been set the task to design, build and animate a Character that can apparently think, decide, pick something up, drop something, walk, climb, trip, slip and fall. I am not allowed more than two character's and the main focus will be on the character animation itself. The animation must be at least 1 mintue long and is due on the 13th April 2012.

I am excited about this brief as I am finally going to get to design a character. Hopefully I will produce a solid short clip with a strong animation.
