Homework Submission – Week 2
Late! Due to previously mentioned hard drive failure. But, done.
Reference for….reference:
This was really challenging to sculpt. I kept seeming to want to naturally add more realism to the sculpture; but the concept art is cel-shaded cartoon style, which is very simple, and it forced me to keep having to go back and simplify the sculpting to maintain the style. I’m not 100% satisfied with the face likeness, but I’m going on the notion right now that the likeness will come closer during the texturing phase.
I’ve left Indy’s gun and whip/bag out for now, I’ll add it after the character retopology is done.
Backstory – well, it’s Indiana Jones! Doctor Henry Jones, Jr. formally, he’s a professor of anthropology who teaches archaeology classes at Marshall College in Connecticut. But when he’s not teaching, he often goes on expeditions for the university to find or retrieve historical artifacts. These expeditions take him all over the world and occasionally into conflict with rival archaeologists, and representatives of foreign governments and militaries who are drawn to the mythical powers some artifacts are alleged to have.
