FMP - Week 17 - Part 2

Microsoft Teams Tutor feedback and character revisions


Today we had another Microsoft Teams drop in session with our tutors and I sought some more feedback on my characters and definitely got it! 

We had a talk about most of my characters and they're for the most part on the right track, I was just advised to change some things here and there. 

My cyclops recieved the most feedback by far and it was because I was rather confused about how to approach the colour breakup that my tutor kept suggesting. 

I'd been sending screenshots to my tutor and the general consesus was that he'd become a little too bland since I'd cranked down the saturation on everything, and that I should add some colour break up throughout him so that he wasn't all one dull shade of blue. 

I understood this in theory, but in practice it seemed I just wasn't getting it in the way I wanted because nothing looked right, so in today's feedback session I think I properly understood. I tried adding some red tones in as shown in the screenshot below, and my tutors told me that its definitely the right direction but they can't just be thrown on with a soft brush, and that I should do some research to see how I can make them look like fish or lizard scales to blend them back in with his body. 



Here you can see the orange tones I'd added in, and now I'm going to work out how I can blend them in with his skin more to make them look scaley and cool!
