DV2901 (Component A) - Possible Ideas





Possible Ideas

During the course of this week, I have to come up with a possible idea that will be brought into my final decision. After brainstorming and looking at different types of two legged toys, I kept looking and found two possible candidates that I will be using as reference that I will model and rig in Maya.

These are the two candidates: 


DOMO Batman

This toy is part of a ''Domo'' toy collection in which comes in different types of customized american super heroes costumes. I have decided to add this toy into my ''possible ideas'' as i believe it has a certain uniqueness to it, also it has visible obvious polygons which I believe i can interpret into Maya.

Here I have played around with Maya using insert edge loops to add edges, vertices to create more complex shapes and soft select to move affected faces.

DANBoard Robot



This toy captured my eye as it contains very simple polygon shapes which is mostly cubes, and at the same time it has some sort of uniqueness to it, like its a very timid and cute character. Looking at the model that I did for the domo Character i believe that using this instead of the Domo Batman can be more effective and at the same time learn more about modelling and rigging just by using basic shapes. In addition, if i do decide to use this toy as my main reference I will make sure, I will add personal touches to it; as of at the picture it looks too plain.
