My first drawing didnt really know what i was doing and just did the first thing that came into my head after reading the brief.
Funny some of the stuff your mind comes up with... A scary version and some kiddy versions
Getting a bit closer to a design... and an attempt at a body.
Ugly Ugly drawings.
Finally a nice design. This is the design that I am using but when i first drew it came to the conclusion that it wouldnt work brilliantly in clay, so i then spent some time trying to develop the design to simplify it and make it rounder but in the end i thought i might as well go along with this one because it as my favorite and worry about making look nice in clay when i start texturing. When designing him in my head i always kinda pictured him as kind of an old fashioned victorian english teacher (a tad specfic) and i think this drawing just portraits it perfectly.
You can kinda see the influence from the main drawing especially in the last one but i still donet think that any of them work as well as the drawing they were based on.
I was trying to think of some claymation films that i know off other than wallace and gromit and i remebered watching one about cavemen years ago about the same time that W+G firt became popular. It was called Gogs and was about a family living in the past, so i went looking fo it and found a coupla episodes on the net, the first thing i latched onto was the fact that the models were fairly complicated and not that desimilar to what i had drawn, so i went back to the design i liked and devloped that a bit further, here you can see me playing with anatomy trying to get the body right and trying to give him a skull so that it give me some referance.
