Belgriss - Character Sheet
The finalized design for my character, Belgriss! Belgriss began as an idea of a pterodactyl combined with a radio. The idea behind this project was to combine an animal with a mechanical part of our choice to create a spooky character.
Belgriss has knobs on the side of his head that shift his emotions and also affect the dark inner part of his stomach area. This is where the radio aspect of this creature comes in. Audio can be relayed through here.
Early Process - Sketching
After deciding what features to bring over from my original animal, the pterodactyl, I began sketching out what he would look like with many other features. To stray away as far from the original species as I could.
Z Brush Turntable
After finalizing this characters design after numerous sketches we take the concept and bring it into Zbrush to create its 3D model.
Concept
This was one of the alternative ideas thought of while designing Belgriss. This version adds different back legs, removing its bug aspect. Also more spikes are included toward the end along with a more spherical behind.
This idea was eventually scrapped to make the shell of Belgriss make more sense with the inclusion of bug legs.
