character one- design idea 1- The Avatar Part 2



























































Character two - Design Idea - The Avatar Part 2


I started of by creating a cube and the extrudeing parts of it to slightly represent a human shape, with two arms adn two legs. I made both the arms and legs three cudes long because this would allow movement in the model later on in the animating part.







i added a hand to the model with help from my tutor andy love, he brang up the idea that it would be better to design the hand with three fingers instead of four because it would make it easlier to animate.








this is what the model looked like when it was smoothed out, still need to be tidied up abit more.







after modeling the hand i then moved onto modeling the feet of the character















This is what the lower torsoe looked like

Character two - Design Idea - The Avatar Part 1

Idea 2


  • human based 3D model


  • slight cartoon style


  • Anime based design prehaps


a typical cartoon character has three fingers and a thumb, instead of being like a human hand with four fingers and a thumb. This would allow for easlier animating.




Research image design




  • Human based design













  • Humanoid based design
