YPGTTO: Kingdoms Of Sound Speed Paint Challenge #3 The Woodwind City / The Oboe District

The Astrologer- Prop and Environment Research for Adaptation B

I was lucky enough to visit the R.A.S in London, the Royal Astronomical Society, to go see and photograph some antique telescopes. I needed to have something to reference my own telescope design for the adaptation project. I took a lot of photos, and tried a couple of sketches whilst I was there, but I mainly stuck with taking photographs.

I'd like my telescope to look slightly unusual and since there is a bird watcher theme to my astrologer, I'd like the telescope to resemble giant binoculars. 

The R.A.S had an incredible looking library, which I may use to reference from when designing the interior of the astrologer's home.

The Astrologer- Character Model Progress for Adaptation B

I wouldn't say I've finished the head yet, as I keep finding things to improve on it, but I've started on the rest of the body anyway. So far it's looking how I imagined, but I'll modify it more when I've completed and put together all the parts for him.

YPGTTO: Kingdoms Of Sound Speed Paint Challenge #1 'The Map' - First Concept

My first attempt at the speed paint challenge. I've only done one so far, as listening to one piece of music repeatedly for a good twenty minutes was getting slightly annoying.

The Astrologer- Modelling Head Progression for Adaptation B

Recently I had been focusing on concept art for the prophecy birds and only really went back to this model today. I've given him a neck and some snazzy brows, which I'll probably develop more at uni with the help of Alan. Whilst at home, I'll model as much as I can so he's ready for refinement. I may even start modelling his body, then start on his character bio. He will also be getting a hat pretty soon, but the body is priority now.

The Astrologer- Prophecy Birds Design Development for Adaptation B

I like the idea of having different nebulas for each type of prophecy. The peacock symbolizes wealth, the vulture symbolizes impending death, and the swan symbolizes love. So for each prophecy I want to create different colour schemes to help portray their meanings.
