Proposal - Creature & Companion - FMP

Proposal

For my FMP I decided to name my project is: To create and develop a character and companion using traditional, mixed media, art styles and digital art; in which going by this title I will work towards producing a development process and doing some final designs as well as doing some digital arts on programs like Adobe Photoshop to do some final designs of the designs in one or two poses as well as an orthographic and maybe if I have enough time a few designs of the animation walk cycle, I will also try to delve into different ways to do my final design such as try using some different styles or try different colours to set different moods. In which I want for my end product to be about 10-15 sheets of development, 2-4 final design poses, a few pages of research into my chosen idea and a orthographic in traditional art and digital art.
During the process I intend to look at various concept artists who do similar things and use there work to give me a brief idea on how I stood present my work and to expand upon this I will attempt to find out how they did there work and what techniques they used.

The influences that I will use will come from other artists work mainly in the form of concept art that will help influence my creative side as well as help me to understand how I should do my colours and form. I will also try to use similar things from other media such as games and film. I developed an interest in the theme from seeing in real life how people bond with animals in a variety of ways and I would like to see that portrayed within a digital piece of art within a certain genre for a video game. To expand upon this once I have chosen my character & creature archetype (Villain, Anti-Hero) I will research into the category to provide a believable characters personality through the use of the character's appearance as well as researching how appearances can create a character.
I will also be creating different versions of my final design by using the effects and adjustments area to get the most out of the piece.
For my research I will be using mainly secondary images but will try to fit in some primary images as they will help me more when going through my development process.

I intend to use mainly traditional drawing skills as well as some work using other media like shading pens, pens and pastel to experiment with. I will also use skills when doing my Photoshop digital work as well as experiment with different art techniques.

How will I review my work? To review my work I will review my work each week of the project to decide on how I need to improve it and as a reminder on how I've gotten and how much i have to do. I also will review what new skills and techniques I may pick up and note them down for further use. I will also ask for feedback once a week either from my classmates or other artists on websites like Beehance which I will use to better criticize my work and decide on what needs improvement and take actions on this as I progress through the development
