Sketchbook Week #6 - Heads, Hands, Hair

 Sketchbook W6 - Heads, Hands, Hair

We weren't told to upload anything this week but I thought I would show a little of the studies that we did on faces, hair and hands in this week's lecture (clothes were also briefly discussed). I enjoyed the simplified "mitten" hand approach and it was cool to see the simple division/proportioning technique for the human face. Also the initial exercise where we were told to draw a face from upside down was a good laugh and also turned out as quite a good exercise (forced us to get started with something by breaking our preconceptions/worries about the human face I suppose).

Watering Can - Household Item Design

WATERING CAN - HOUSEHOLD ITEM DESIGN This watering can in our laundry is "mundane" and very simple in its design, but I like it for the colour choice, the extremely textured and weathered look of the painted area, and the very smooth edges (all of the edges appear quite bevelled and flow/sink into each other in a way that doesn't look visually jarring at all). Gestalt's principle of continuity is partially present here in that way I suppose! For fun, I went into Blender and spent a couple of hours creating a simple model of this watering can and texturing it. I hope I got across the smoothness in my recreation! The final result is a bit too high-poly for a game asset but it could be decent as a prop in a CG film or something! The most difficult part was the tube, which I created to some degree of success using a bezier curve (however I think the joint is a little awkward).
