Long Time Lots Has Changed

Hello fellow readers,

It has been a while and there have been many changes in my life.  But enough about me.

'what new project?' 

I hear you say.  Well that is a tale of it's own.   Something I have been mulling in my head for quite some time, and finally I have decided to grace you all with this rosy idea.

How best to explain it? I have decided to create some characters.  One lot in one style and the rest in another.  One group will be children created in an almost Disney style, the others will be adults in a more realistic style.  Why?................................... Because.

I am creating my own group of super heroes, but they are kids.  So the kid characters will be dressed up as kids do, with anything they can get their hands on, whilst the other side of the coin will be their imagination.  What they believe themselves to be.  These adult hero's will be the represented imagination of the kids in a realistic hero style.

Here are some designs I have been mucking about with.



And the Blueprint


I also modelled two character base models to use as a starting point for my characters.  Hopefully this will keep them all to the same scale. 




And for those of you that know me, I may have a slight habit for the complex and higher polly modelling so take a close look at the polly count....................................

  6. Jake is this project going to be similar to the way Fable 1 was? Everything seems fairlytale and bright and shiney but in actual fact it's pretty dark and grim?

  7. Not sure really. Just liked the idea of silly and serious and wanted to fit them together. Also liked the look of Spiderman Parallel lines and thought that different styles would look cool and show off more skills. More Mad Skills
