Production?!

Today I took a break from story and concentrated on modelling Jed. According to our schedule we should have both characters modelled and ready to rig by the end of term. Unfortunately due to story development, essays, presentations and other P.O work I do not think this will be the case. Instead I will be happy if we get both characters roughly modelled for christmas, so we can apply some texture tests over the break and have them ready to animate within the first few weeks of term 2. We noticed the mistake previous years made was not allowing enough time to animate, so we are planning ahead.





Imported the front, back and side drawings into maya as image planes and began working on the basic shapes. Alec and I hummed and arred on the decision to model in metres, however we decided to go with it as it is industry standard after all. So far I have only managed to get the body, arm and section of the hand mapped out, but a good start!
