Back to college

This is my first post since before the summer, and i will be posting some updates to get my blog up to date.

During the summer i did some work comming up with my idea for the task we were set for the summer. My character idea is a steam powered steampunk style robot. My initial idea was that somehow the robot gains powered through a strange energy source being gathered by an alien race.

Since returning to college my idea has developed and progressed as i felt my initial idea was quite cheesy and generic. But i have kept the initial concept of a steam powered robot in an industrial steam powered world.

Now the idea has progressed into a robot that is now coin activated, and a coin finds its way into the robot and powers it on, and the robot proceeds to walk around and expolre seeing the estroyed world around him that is so different to what he remembered.

After getting my idea for my character down and developing some of my concept drawings, dave said it would be a good idea to do my model sheet in 3D, and i liked the idea, so i had to make my character in 3D which i knew would be quite time consuming.

I will post some pictures now to sow the progression of my 3D model and how its coming along so far.
