Elliot's Expression Sheet

I've finally sorted out Elliot's look and expressions, I think he definitely looks heroic and power with a hint of charm.

Hero energy outfit

A falling star hits Elliot's space shuttle and causing his shuttle to crash land onto this planet. When he pulls himself out of the reckage he finds the star on the desert sand. He picks it up and feels a huge energy coming from it. After finding inhabitants on the planet and making peace with them he find out that the king is an evil man and is killing everybody on the planet. He also finds out that the king has a machine that will fix his shuttle, but he will not give it up too easily. Through advanced intellegence Elliot is able to make weapons of human and alien technology. He uses the star as a source of energy for the weapons, and creates a component to allow only him to use them.

  

Villain in colour

For the colour palette I tried to stick with purple,red,black equalling evil. I'm very happy with this, when it comes to the final FINAL version, I will put more effort into the blending and shading.

Villain's life Support Machine/Throne

Every night this character has to recharge his small amount of energy that is still in his body. For this I wanted to create a life support machine built in a throne room fit for a vulture type alien. I was thinking that this room is like a heart/nest that has electricity running through and connecting to him throught the night.

This room is placed at the tallest part of the temple, where the villain uses his staff's magic to float up to it. The moment he sits in the room, the wires come alive and stick into the character. The electricity paces through the character and re-energises him.

This is a little close up of the character, as the electricity passes through, his eyes glow with electric blue!

Turn around and Expression Sheet for the Villain

The turn around is looking pretty good, Ivery happy with how everything is working. I may need to do an improved one before the presentation but I'm very happy with this!

I couldn't think of many expressions for the villain, but that's because a villain tends to just be angry or planning something. HoweverI started to think about how he would react to his servants when they return and messed up a mission of some sort.

Once again very happy with these but I will hopefully come up with more. 

Sorting out the Villain

I have so many ideas lately that has changed the villain character, I wanted to consentrate on the personality, appearance and the link to the other characters. Originally I had this character as a really old and withered guy but it came to my attention that if this was so, then what makes his henchmen and servants obey him. 

I wanted to change the legs aswel because for me they were too mamalian, so i have changed them to more bird like. Also I didn't like the idea of a bird alien character having a sit down throne becuase birds don't sit down on chairs with their legs hanging out. So I have changed the legs and the idea of the throne and also I have hunched his shoulders more to give him the powerful presence of a vulture.

Here is what I have -

This one looks too weird and unbelievable, his neck would never support that head.

These drawings are getting close, I like the added evil the large shoulders give the character. However what I don't like is how young he still looks.

I was having another think about this character, and wondered why he would have this rough clothing. If he's the king or ruler of this planet then he must look the part.

Then I came up with this -

I'm liking this guy a bit more now, I made the hunched shoulders into large shoulder padding but kept that hunch in his back. I've given the guy a staff which has a power in it that allow him to create magic, which gives him the power to hurt or even kill who he wants.

Also i have given the character six small eyes like a spider because 1. I was having problems with which eyes to pick and this worked best, and 2. It just looks more evil!


This character I think is almost there, just a few touch ups and accessories! :D

Developing the Sidekick Colour

I wanted to have a little fun with photoshop because I haven't played around with it as much as I should have by now. Heres the result -

This is really starting to come together! AH WOOHOOO!!
