BSA 306 part 3

first concepts  


these were some initial tests of what may be the damaging effects of over-or miss using magic, from the top left there is explosive, frostburn, illusion (which is actually just visions from the caster) dehydration, electricity burns and heat burns/fire








Base for animations

i created this animation to be the base for most of the magical effects i will be testing, to create this i use online and real world reference material, aka my own hand to get the main keyframes and movement, a close up in my series concept will show a bit more detail, things like the skin contours on the hand like i have done in this, not in to much detail , becouse then it becomes both to difficult and weird looking amongst the rest of the animations,

Character Expression sheets: outlines Gideon: with this redesign of gideon i wanted to maintain a teenage appearance, or even make it more apparent but still have his personality somewhat apparent, purely from his visual appearance.        Darcy: with this redesign of Darcy i wanted to try and express his "childishness" he visually looks younger than the other 2 protagonist but is in fact the same age.   Ash: Ash's redesign was both to suit the new designs of the other characters and was another attempt of drawing a better female character, something i'm becoming more adept at after a long time of not drawing many girls, or even making animated characters with faces period, rather than a mask/helmet/robot face etc.

History of the Grimvaul Empire (lore development) The Grimvaul Empire was shaped into what it is today by two key events in history, the extinction of magic and the new world order.

Over the course of 47 years, magic not only a...

run cycle outlines test 1 with the run cycle i was attempting to get some independent movement from the shirt the fool wears as well as the tassels (which i haven't added yet). this is one of the references  i used to see how to implement independent   movement  into my run cycle as seen in the qipao (type of Chinese  dress)  chun li wears. finished idle  idle done in full colour, also added mask details and fixed some problems with the outlines. the tassels now stand out properly and overall i believe the animation is fluid/active. overshoot  test 1 first test of the overshoot technique on a three hit quick combo, i have found that using the technique also involves it being a "held frame" technique aswell, theses techniques work together, giving a visually better impact. one of the animations i used as reference shows a perfect example of what im attempting to do, not to make the limb look stretched ...
