This is a much better version in my opinion but the writing is still naff even though thats not my area haha so i might get someone to think up of something for me if you have any ideas please let me know

A poster for the new style for the animation will brighten it up later!

Research and progress

Research and progress

After looking around for awhile I stumbled across some lovely animation one I already know of and the other is not so much a animation but its still involves animation since its a game.

Limbo

The style of this is very well done I really like the silhouetted style with the very nice faint glow of light breaking through. The characters animations are greatly done to I notice that he never actually looks at the player face on or turn his back. That is clever for the way the game works and I might try this in a test sample for my animation.

Kwoon animation

The style of the character not really showing much of its face is what I have ended up simplifying my character to be like. But mixing the style I have done with the likes of limbo style could work really well. The processes of this animation are all done in 3D I still haven't determined what I will be doing but I don't think I will be doing it in 3D. Heading towards the animation being 2D and hand drawn frame by frame. But this could change as soon as I test some styles out.

Whilst I will be focusing on creating ether a more simplified version of my character and doing the character sheets I will be making some test concept art pieces to see what it would looks like if I mix the two styels together. After doing this I will be making a very small version of the leather bound book that I wish to create ounce the animation and the illustrations are finished.

Mushroom Kingdom

This isnt the best in the series of drawings i have done even though i have only spent about 3-4 hours on it were as the rest are around 8 hours. But i may come back and tweak this This is only a piece i decided to do for i liked the idea although i may implement it to the story of him going through a massive Mushroom kingdom

New Child Layout

This could fine well be the final version of the child for the animation but time will tell. Please tell me what you think plus you may like the next piece and working on
