some more references.

 

starting on a final concept for one of the characters, so for iv done a quick grey painting then mapped out where the weapon will go. I put the lines on to get prospective so I could get the weapon looking like in part of the 3D space, also put a shadow in to give the character some wait (so it doesn't look its in thin air)

 Iv thought about using the blue print design for some of the weapons... i think it would look really cool an it would allow you to see how the weapons work ect... and they look really good as concept sheets.

 some research/ references for the female characters

 one of the character has some kind of beak mask so i thought this would be a good reference.

 some gun designs for the characters, I will pick the best design to draw 3D look of the gun then apply it to the character its for.

Theres big powerful guns, small guns, snipers, weird guns, knifes, throwing weapons, spades.

 i started to try a 3D drawing here but some of the angles are wrong.

A quick coloured up to show what colours they would be.

 Im trying to make a little model of a broken down castle, its just a test out to see how it works. I made it with polystyrene, gluing bit together an shaping them ect... I then gave it two coats of a one coat plaster, got to wait for it to set an paint it.

some sample pieces i did to try out different textures for grounds, I put sand in to little containers and put different things in for different effects, then filled it with plaster. worked out pretty well i think.

Iv gone over the costumes so they look finer, nust need to colour ten now.

Drew up some costume ideas for male characters, after colouring these up i will pick some of my best designs an do a detailed up concept of them

 some work sheets iv done for research and to start to design the alternative miss world game.
i found doing the work sheets on photoshop instead of a sketch book really easy and helpful as there was no need for printing pictures out, i could just drag them to the page which saves alot of time, also i had everything in front of me so the work flow was better.
