3 Minute Short Film - Modelling - Old Woman

3 Minute Short Film

Modelling

-Old Woman


The Old woman was based on old style granny kinda character with Bell shape body and white hair "trying" to look fashionable. It was a simple design with thin arms and fat legs and fat round body in a stiff huge dress with puffy sleeves.
 



Modelling started with the legs of was quick as I don't go into details cause it won't be seen on screen and was not worth the excess time.  Followed by the body,  a quick cylindrical shape with a belt in the middle. The arms were thin which I don't realise until my tutor pointed it out which was too late as it will need a lot of changes and I was running out of time as this was my last character. The arms as usual copied it over and had to reduce our size a lot and joined it to the body. The hair was not as planned it was just the a part of the head which I extracted and made it look like hair covering the ear.
 


Texturing, the whole character got the same wooden texture and for colour, I created a colour map for the dress with a orange base and white flower outlines. Not much special in this character. Rigging was also uneventful, just the usual. The facial expressions, I had to make a few like ohhh! Expressions and a smile. Skinning was also quick.
