Design Package!

Hey All --

Well -- the design package has finally reached a comfortable place from which to jump off in to 3d.  The irony of having a blog with "3d" in the title is not completely lost on me.  To date there has been no 3d entry. 

But that all ends right after the Design Package.

So please enjoy -- the Final Animatic again.

And these concepts/illustrations.

 Clearly when looking at Shrieky's Mirror I wasn't able to get away from the lightsaber look, so I decided to embrace it.  She won't be using it like a lightsaber -- and I couldn't really think of a more practical shape to get the desired effect.

Braveheart will be my first model for two reasons.  One: he'll be one of the more demanding modeling challenges.  Two: since the animation will largely revolve around Braveheart -- once he's modeled the rough layout can be started.

Not much more to say except the assets phase is beginning.  It's going to be great getting to delve in to the third dimension once again.

Next week -- Braveheart modeling WIP.

j -- out.
