5.11.2018 Initial Character sketches

Since my project is going to be a short 5 minute film, there are going to be several characters that are going to be featured and all of them are going to be robots. Below are some of my initial sketches oof what the characters could look like.

The first character that i designed was the main characters sidekick, Vendo.

Vendo is a talking vending machine that is designed to be the comdey relief character much like Patrick from Spongebob. This initial design of Vendo has jets that make him hover and eyes that are suspended in the vending machine glass much like a hologram. While not detailed in the image there are going to be several products stocked behind the glass much like a real vending machine.The sketch below is not final and aspects may change. When i come to 3D model it, it will be changed there

The second character that i designed is the the Police Chief called Big Chief. Big Chief has been designed to be a police chief similar in design to Bigwled from the film Robots in the sense that it is designed to be a big ball with a floating top half also similar to BB-8 from star wars.Below, the left image is my initial sketch of Big Chief. An aspect of the design for Big Chief that i plan to change is to make him have a hat more akin to a Sheriff hat. 

Another design that i have sketched, while not in the current roster of character i would like to include is the design below. It is nowhere near finished however it is supposed to be an old CRT Monitor that moves around due to it being on tank treads. The design is reminiscent of the Robobrains from the Fallout Series.
