3.13.2018 Big Chief

The second character that I have modelled is Big Chief. Big chief is the police chief of the city and is the robot that enlists the main character for help with the crime in the city. Like i detailed i an earlier post, big chief is inspired by the character Big Weld in the film Robots who is a robot that moves around by a large ball as the lower torso.

When modelling i made a few changes that i think have improved the model for example in the initial design, Big chief was designed to have an american style police hat. When i modelled him however, i decided to model him with a Sheriff style hat instead.

The model has no colour at the moment due to not having decided the colour scene. The current colours on Big Chief are a placeholder for where certain features are on the model. For example, the black is where the "mouth" is and the red is the eye. One element that will be on the model is the ball section. This will have a stripe to show that the bottom half is moving and is not a just a solid colour.

The arms of big chief are going to float around much like Rayman's hands.
