20 Minutes of Experimenting on Chief - A Mini Project

So yes the word to define my love for Master-Chief would be obsessed. Good now we got that out the way I decided to do a couple of digital drawings and paper drawings of my favourite spartan(s) and yes Noble 6 deserves some credit too. I plan to keep this post not as talky but just a quick gallery of some of my child like experimental drawings and tell you my ides behind them so you my lovely reader get to decide whether they are fit enough to wipe your bottoms with, or not.

So on a random day at university I was speaking to one of the lovely second years, and he was modelling this bad-ass armour dude, so with excitement of wanting to be good as him at modelling I delved a little further into his work and yes I did ask if I could take a peep at his concept art. Some of the drawings where done with a paint or colour and all the line work was painted on in ink afterwards. So with the quality of his work and thinking about the style of doing a background layer of colour of the object and then fine lining afterwards I decided to do some experiments of this but with felt tip pens, ink and photoshop.

The First - Not great a little rushed but then so was the evacuation of Reach

I gave myself 20 minutes for each image just because I am experimenting. So remember these are not what we would consider 'industry standard' so don't bee cheeky.

The Second of my experiment, God I feel like Haisley

Firstly i would start by colouring the intended shape, Spartan 117 is green so I coloured the body in the intended pose followed by the visor which is a honeycomb orange. Then once you have your dashes of colour I either got that sexy black felt tip pen or my posh parker ink and just lined him out and gave him some details. 

The same goes for my photoshop versions excepti just used black paint with the brush on the boldest setting (or whatever you graphic designers call it) with soft brushes being the filler and yes I did the shaping first then the fine-lining and details afterwards same as before.

Halo 5 is going to be HOLY! - see what I did there?

Also just a quick heads up the blog for my first professional looking 3D model will be posted in 4 or so days, so if you are moist to see the capabilities I potentially have for this industry then is the perfect time to see what this geek can do.

Halo 3? We all loved Halo 3

Another disclaimer wiping your bottom with regular paper would be painful so don't take my talking in a literal sense, thanks.
