Week 3
This week we need to do the silhouettes of our characters. Think about our game proposal. Think about character classes.
Week 4
We need to continue doing our character process, do the sketches and silhouettes, then we need to do the value studies and add colors. We need to do those before week 7. We also need to explore weapons. Make the sketches loose first.
FEEDBACK
Mr Kannan said my world creation is fine, he let me add the culture to the world I create. He think I can continue my work on the 3 character scatches and progress them further.
REFLECTION
This semester, we have game art with Mr Kannan. Mr Kannan is a great teacher. He describe detaily about what we need to do for each week, what requiremet we need to meet. He also teach us skills to draw the character. We first build our character with simple shapes, and then we make the proportion looks fine and do things further, such as value study with black and white to study the lighting etc. We also need to polish and sculpt one character. This class is fun and I learnt a lot from it.
