3 Minute Short Film - Modelling - Fat Man

3 Minute Short Film

Modelling

-Fat Man


The Fat Man Character is designed to look like a fat Chinese or Asian FAT man in a suit with a bald head and its a bit low & forward cause he is always bending forward (result of being fat). The design is very simple. I had looked at few references for him but much was not needed.



Character Design.



Modelling him was easy with a simple design. First I started with the legs, a circular hips(from top view) and straight legs. Since the character is wearing a suit and is fat, not much detailing was needed, just some cylindrical shapes with a bend near the knee. The hand, I copied the file which I had created before and made a bit chubbier to fit the character.

The texture was same as other characters and colour was a black(for suit) with for dots for buttons and a red tie. I tried to create a line to differentiate between the 2 layers at front by creating a shadow but it dint come out good so I deleted it and kept it black.


The rig was quite similar to the other one. The spine had a inward curve which is different cause of the slouch of the character. In facial expression region only a smile and jaw action was needed as the character dint show much emotion in the movie.

Rigs


The Character also had a prop with hi a suitcase.



I 3D printed this character as well, as this was one the best characters I had modelled apart from the bear.
