Couch Potatobot T1000

Third Assignment for Digital Character Sculpting class. A robot! I decided to go for a simple animated look this time and have fun with the concept. I wanted to create a scene in which a robot is doing something very mundane and human-like such as sitting and watching TV after a long day of work at a boring office job.
Sketches/ideas


 I want to add a bowl of micro"chips" for him to hold but for now, that's all.

Senior Studio Alter-Ego Classmate 2





Finished with my second character in senior studio for the Alter-Ego project. This time I sculpted my friend Abdul as "Halal Man." This one seemed to be easier somehow than the last one I did and I was even able to give the character a plaque to stand on. I've also included some of my reference materials and a picture of the earliest versions of this sculpt so you can see the before and after.


Made the base mesh out of Zspheres (left) and then (right) is my failed first attempt at the sculpt. I was originally going to do the sculpt asymmetrically and then realized how hard that is.
