Boy Skeleton Complete



Refining the Boy Character












With Alans help I refined the model by attaching the hands, adding a bottom and helping wills modeling with edges here and there. I think the boxy-ness that will created within the model looks really good and stylist fitting our scene and story.

Cardboard Boxes

One thing I really liked about the factory is the boxes that we could have laying around. How our character could have aspects of his shape like a box. I had a look at the shapes and sizes of different boxes and tried to do some drawings from them.








I did a few drawings based on the images and research I found and come up with a few ideas. These are basic sketches. Felt good to sketch again after while. 












Character Building

I keep trying to figure out how to draw my character and what type of figure they will be. So I began research drawings. I find that it helps me to understand the character more when I see images of drawings. I see what I like and don't like and begin building my character. 
Heres some images I found helpful.

I started looking into the different types of expressions each person makes. It's hard to create expression on a face when you don't know exactly which one is which. The expression I'm really looking for is love and love sick. A silly/foolish look on a boy. 

Using the lessons and tips that Justin has thought use I wanted to build the character using shapes. Our character in the factory isn't strong but he isn't weak. He's not big built but he's not skinny. He's sort of a built of the factory, clumsy and box like.
