getting started



Blog: I've decided to chose the scene "hello my little friend" from Scarface a action genre, transforming it to a sic-fi genre. The iconic scene is based around a cocaine rage fueled Tony Montana with a death wish. As he fights off a score of hitmen, being a mafia leader and says one of the most well known quotes in movies as he starts to fight off hitmen in one awesome final stand. Which is the original scene based off while instead for my version of it in sci-fi with a future soldier thats really in for some payback with a bigger and much more powerful gun in some small space like a corridor.

The primary goals to achieve in character design is:
- achieve a futuristic look for the soldier
- a idea thats detailed yet fairly simple 
- make a fairly big gun thats futuristic also
- make him have a decent build cant truthfully be weak but dont want him to look seriously buff also
- make a stand out color like maroon while keeping greys and blacks
- keep his look intimidating 

So far ive decided the basics for the characters look based around likelihood of time period which is around 20 to 50 to even 100 years ahead from now in a nutshell to help with design and through several attempts have come up with a good idea of what to plan for this as a black Kevlar and some new type of strong metal/ carbon fiber materials to show modest protection and making him also very intimidating the helmet will be a challenge as it needs to show a concept of a menacing face behind it.

 honestly when i comes to referencing i couldnt really find the name of the artists but instead focused more on many random artists but the concept art relates alot to overall design as a whole like areas will have total cover like chest and lower legs while areas like upper legs and arms will have more plated protection as examples include call of duty ( advanced warfare and black ops 2 and 3), Doom ect where armor and weapons come in many shapes and sizes as a whole. some of these concepts will come later on when i make a reference to the ideas

the soldier would likely be put in very undesirable situations like most common soldiers and will want a bit of payback so maybe as a background coudl be a damaged area or a ship or space station where its time for some revenge to occur weapons could be some heavy duty weapon like a mobile artillary peice or a shoulder cannon to fit the era of his battle
