London Natural History Museum!!!

I went to the London Natural History Museum to look at some of the fossils and creatures, they had alot of stuff about Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, and show like how birds had different beaks to do certain tasks, also I saw alot of fossils and looked how there bodies where built to do things like hunt, or defend them selves from predators.

                                             Rough model of Plated chameleon in Masking tape


          Starting this project, I 1st created some models out of plasterscene  and other materials, the good thing is about it is its simple and easy to use and allows me to make small rough images some to life, and the block colours gave it some conceptual look to them as well sadly alot of these creatures didn't progress though the idea stage, but I'm happy to say that the plated chameleon did!

HANDIMALS!

 

 1st I created a weird hand sign that sort of had an animalistic figure

                                                               next I drew that hand figure.

                                     Then I imagined an animal out of that figure giving it an rough image
                                               and adding characteristic to it

 

and finally inking it and adding small details to make it more animal like like a tail

and patterns, this creature is dubbed ' boxing giraffe' because the way its arms like 'fisticuffs

Oxford University Museum Visit/ Fossil Study

Today I went to The Oxford University Museum to look at fossils,Skeletons and how they display them

for my FMP exhibition, looking at Illustrations as well how they can predict a whole creature

with just very little of there body E.g. what colour they where or if they had large scaly bodies.

These Images below are an example of what I was saying about over exaggeration

with these jaw they managed to create an image of what the creature possibly looked like.

Auitus-turpis , crepitocruca, Solarsarus,Coronalignum-equus

                                                                         Auitus-Turpis
                                                                          (Ugly Bird)
                                                                        Chomper Bat

                                                                Gentlemen's Caterpillar

Solarsaurus 

(Sun Lizard)

Greater Aztec Gecko

Cronalignum-Equus

(Wooden Crown Horse)

Omni-Horned Giraffe

                       These are more detailed protraits of creatures of this evolutionairy chain. all done from scratch using a dip-pen I have also given them Latin names as to make more believable and also giving them morden names to make it easier for the audience to understand what creatures are like.

Evolution chain-concepts

             These are my ideas for what the evolutionary chain will look like, obviously i will make some adjustments and refine some of the characters, im also going to draw some more detailed creatures I added a bit of colour to some to make it easier to translate and give a bit more life into them, I drew theses straight from a dip pen thus the mess

Breaker...

I am sorry to announce that I will no longer be workingn on BREAKER- due to unforeseen circumstances but I am happy to announce that I will be releasing a new comic shortly into summer! Stay tuned to more updates
