Minor Project: Modelling Progress - 13/12/14

The modelling for the body of the Delivery Man character is almost done now. 

The hands and shoes are on their way to being finished, although they're not pictured. The legs and tie need a bit of refinement as well, but that shouldn't take too long. 

The modelling for the body should be finished by the end of the weekend, so I can move onto modelling the head fairly soon.

As for Franklin, the skinning is about halfway done, so that should be finished sometime Sunday evening also.

Minor Project: Modelling Progress 4/12/14 - Franklin Complete and Delivery Man Progress

I've completed modelling Franklin more or less now. His teeth and tongue will be added when I get rigging.

I've also made a start on the modelling of the Delivery Man character, blocking out the general form. I plan to have the Delivery Man modelled before the Christmas break.

Minor Project; Modelling Progress 1/12/14 - Sprouting Limbs

This is my progress so far with Franklin's construction. 

The general form is there, although several details are yet to be added. I've yet to add his hands, although they'll be there soon. I think the next thing I'm going to model is his undershirt, which is mainly a collar and some buttons, as well as refinements and a bit of asymmetry on the folded and ruffled sleeves.

Minor Project: Modelling Progress 27/11/14 - Franklin's New Do

Below are a few screenshots of Franklin and his roughly modelled hair.

I've yet to include some of the details, including how the hair will interact around the ears, although this gives a rough idea of how the hair will appear overall.

Minor Project: Rough Delivery Man Design

I've put together a very rough design for the Delivery Man character.

After researching what a 1970s delivery man would look like, I came to the conclusion that being that it is a British setting, the most suitable choice would be a run-of-the-mill English postie.

I may alter the outfit slightly, give the impression that the man works for an independent delivery company, although I think the familiar Postman appearance is a bit more humanising and helps represent the audience more effectively.

Minor Project: Modelling Progress 25/11/14 - Adding the Ears

I've added Franklin's ear and neck now, as well as restructuring a lot of the geometry. 

The ear will predominantly be under hair, so I've not provided it with a huge amount of detail. Also, I've added an image of the head without the wireframe and I'm starting to worry that its all looking a little too flat. Whilst I work out how to provide the model with a bit more depth, I think I'm going to start constructing the body.
