Final Level Renders

After completing all my modelling and texturing of individual assets, adding lights and animation. I finished my level and wanted to post the final outcome with some screen shots of the level complete, hope you like.



















Character Worksheet

With this project I also produce a character worksheet, which shows the development of how I started and finished the design of Hades.



Final Character

With this image I combined all of what I had produced including my thumbnails, colour tryouts and background drawings, which helped me design and create my final character. With this character I wanted to capture the same design of my other sketches, but have the look and feel that my character was based around.

As I have said in older posts, this character is evolved around the Greek god Hades. I chosen to have him in an alternate universe, as a sci-fi bounty-hunter on the run from his two brothers Zues and Poseidon who are pursuing him to his death. With this in mind I started to think of how a sci-fi bounty-hunter would look like, having my research and my sketches for inspirational. With this I captured Hades in a different look and design.

The image of my final character it shows Hades on a wanted poster, I chose a wanted poster as it was a key part of his background with the law and fits how I portrayed Hades to look finally look with this alternate universe.



Character Update

After producing some thumbnails sketches, I started to think about colours and and began to colour some thumbnails that I liked the most. Some where just tryouts to see what colours worked well together and others where practice examples, as I used a tablet to colour them .










Looking at my colour templates I went ahead further by adding more detail, lights, shadows and including a background that would fit the character.

Character Thumbnails

After looking at some images, here are some idea sketches just to see how my character might look.




Using my thumbnails I started to pick parts i liked and create new ideas and adding a little more time and detail into the next drawings as they will help shape my final design.




Character Project

Like I said in my last post I have been given a character project during my level design project. I have chosen Hades god of the underworld. With Hades I wanted to given him a sci-fi look and feel, I started to gather some research.

Just some images I found helpful to start doing some thumbnail sketches.








Work Update

It's been a while since I posted work on my level project, I have also been given another project related to developing and designing a sci-fi character based of myths and legends. I has chosen to recreate the god of the underworld, Hades as a sci-fi bountyhunter. 

I will post more on that project. but for now the up date on my level so far. I have been designing and making assets to fit within each room of the level, here are some screen shots.
