KLED: Radio Scene - Texturing Progress

I've been working on the radio scene today and here's how far I've got. (Model credits to Elly)

 

Below are the UV laid out texture maps for the radio, Left = Bump - Right = Colour.

Character Development: Villain WorkOut

I've drawn out a few designs/ideas for my Villain.

I've also decided upon 99% of props and colours for my character;

• Hat - Dark Brown / Black / Grey
• Shirt - White
• Tie - Red
• WaistCoat - Dark Red
• Coat/Jacket - Dark Grey
• Trousers - Black
• Shoes - Black
• Badge - Gold
• Guns / Holster - Silver Gun - Brown/Leather Holster

I've painted a quick mock up of the colours over the last drawing, in PhotoShop;

This character is still needing some final body adjustments, and might also undergo a makeover too.

More to come.

Character Development: Defining the Unforgiven

Unforgiven is a film about redemption, a girl is beaten and dis-figured, whose friends set a bounty on the mans' head who delivered this evil. $500. The citizens of the town grew menacing towards the Sheriff, who didn't do anything about the man who beat up the woman. This brought English Bob and Little Bill Daggett to meet.

English Bob meets Little Bill Daggett in this scene, after a few years. And ends up getting in a good 'ole scuffle. And Little Bill Daggett is victorious. I believe the outfit of English Bob, is very smart and makes him look tough but I would also need some of the details from Little Bill Daggett to make him look more "Sheriff" like.

Little Bill Daggett

More to come. Stay Tuned.

One-A-Day: Logo Competition.

In response to this. I have started to design/create a logo. I'm not sure if anyone else is, but It will be complete by the end of tonight ;)

My result will be posted here, and on the UCA CG Arts Group Blog.

COMPLETE!
I spent the last 2 hours on this, on and off. Below is a kind of 'step-by-step' of the progress. Thanks.

Final Piece

Character Development: Villainous Research

I watched a western the other day, Unforgiven (1992) with Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, and Morgan Freeman.

Retired Old West gunslinger William Munny reluctantly takes on one last job, with the help of his old partner and a young man.

This was very, very influential in my decision for my Villain. I shall be using the Sheriff type but with 'friendly' characteristics. I feel the character English Bob would be suitable for this role, with a slight modification to his character.

English Bob, is the patriotic English assasin, who was hired by the prostitutes to kill two Cowboys, because they "Cut Up" the face of one of the girls. The reward was $500, but English Bob does not succed. Little Bill, the sheriff of Big Whiskey takes his firearms and beats him up, and then sends him on the next train home!
Played superbly by the late Richard Harris RIP.

English Bob, is the gentleman on the right of this image. I'm in the process of ordering a copy of the film, from which I will then look into further, sketching out ideas for my character, and creating more screenshots of English Bob, for everyone to see.
