Latest Update: Final Image: final

#2

This is my starting point. It’s a very quick sketch of the image I have in my mind: A big spaceship full of lights breaks the speed limits; two italian police officers check its driver, a strange alien, as they usually do in these cases…

#3

I try to find the right point of view and the right position of the characters and of the vehicles. I’m looking for a very imposing shoot. The spaceship has to look wonderfull, beautifull and dangerous

#4

I start to think about the design of the spaceship. I like this shot. For now, I’ll work on it

#5

I forgot:It’s night.

#6

A closer look at the characters area.

#7

This is a sketch of the first police officer’s attitude.

#8

This is the othe police officer. He’s checking the alien’s driving licence…

#9

This is the alien. I was working on this character few weeks ago and I decided to put him in this scene. I like his face and I think he will work very well in this situation.

#10

This is the first color version of the alien made few weeks ago. I started it for another project, but he works fine in this scene…

#11

This is the first sketch of the head of the alien

#12

Some costume sketces of the alien. I’d like to mix in this dress a pyjama and something like the costumes of the some rock band of the '80es.

#13

Other ideas about the uniform of the alien

#14

Other ideas. I like the shape of the uniform on the shoulders, but I think it’s too cumbersome…

#15

Well, I think it’s time to begin the model now!

#16

I started to study the shape relations of the spaceship. I’d like to make it not so symmetrical…

#17

I like your concept. Maybe you could do skid marks on the road weaving back and forth, so it looks like the alien was driving drunk. Good work.

#18

Thanks Chris!

Your advice is very interesting, but maybe I can put some speed limit signal back and forth, because I don’t think the alien is really drunk…I have to think about it…Thanks again.

#19

Cool concept. Now go go go!

#20

Finally the first steps of the modeling of the alien. I’m going to finish the whole model this night (I hope so…)
Thanks Gardogg
