mako [edit]

this character design assignment is so frustrating !

i wanted to design it for gaming but i didnt want it too look to animu or too realistic and badass.. but i guess my inner weeaboo couldnt help it.

it also originally looked just like sokka, and then it looked just like me.. and then i chose the name mako and realized that that's the name of the bro from legend of korra. :/

also while making up his backstory i realized.. that i just ended up retelling naruto. *SIGH

oh well, i'm having a lot of fun with this assignment but i guess i always do when i get to design and create something of my very own. :> i'm just scared i'm gonna fuck up the sculpture cause that's what i do.

i think his head is too big

EDIT:
had to clean it up. here is the updated version (untemplated):

bruce lee : progress + final

*sigh

+ 1.5 hrs

to be honest i'm not enjoying school right now. i thought after first year we could finally start designing our things but right now we're still focusing on a lot of fundamentals and technicalities. 

regardless, i'm enjoying this assignment. i'd like to work more on it more but other classes require my attention :c

[another update] 29/09/2012

i'm pretty content with how this turned out. the skin looks a little fake and too smooth and there are a bunch of other little things that i need to go over but if i keep working on this i'll fall behind on my other homework qq

[final final]

okay srsly, here's the final as in what i pretty much handed in. made a few fixes to the previous image then handed it in. only difference is that i sharpened the image and adjusted the levels slightly for the blog :P

Animal with fur assignment did for Digital Painting class. Definitely could use a bit more work but I'm too pressed for time :c
