Building The Character

Corset

I haven't used the smooth tool for the corset because I think it shows that it is wired or boned like a real corset.

Trousers

I wanted the trousers to be figure hugging but to also have a flare to cover boots.

Coat

I liked the coat to have a shorter front and a fishtail back to show off the trousers and belt.

I also like the black gothic style to it, bringing in the waist.

During reading week I smoothed off the trousers to show the curve in the leg.

I also added the coat, I think that I may have to redo the creases that I have added 

into the sleeves as they seem too prominent.

Adding More To The Coat

Hands

I found the hands very hard to make, but this was mainly down to my drawing, I should have added far more detail to it and possibly have drawn an above view of the hands.

I found practicing the hands we had been making in lectures helpful for making my own.

Head

Again if my pictures had more detail, making the head would be been easier.

When doing my drawing I thought if I made it simple it would be easier to model but I found that the more detail in the original image the more there is to go from when creating the model. 

Inside The Head And The Mouth

As my character is going to have it's mouth closed I didn't 

need to include a lot for the inside of the head.

Eyes

Face

Because of the angle of my head it has been quite difficult to mirror my head. 

To solve this I duplicated the first half of the model and then mirrored new half.

Chest And Neck, Hair And Hips

Although the hips cannot be seen while the model is in the pose, 

I thought it would be a good idea to add them in just incase when the model is moved 

the skin can be seen between the corset and trousers.
