DES 312 3D Animation

Project 1:
For project one I decided to create a future weapon, to get ideas of what type of
weapon to create I looked at many different types of already existing weapons.
With the research I had done I decided to create a futuristic anti-aircraft weapon,
inspired by modern SAM turrets as seen below in call of duty:

Project 2:
Week 1 and 2:
I decided for project 2 to create my very own unique model though I needed
inspiration, I was think of creating a futuristic soldier type character but different
from the usual idea of laser beams and spaces ships. Therefore I researched
video games and movies that centre around alternative wasteland type futures, I
looked at characters and environments from movies such as Mad Max and Alien,
to see what sort of different futures my character could exist in. I researched
video games such as the fallout series to see what types of weapons and
technology these games have, I also looked at games that werent futuristic such
as dark souls o get an old twist on a futuristic type character, below are some of
the images I used for inspiration taking from the internet:

Week 3-4:
After I had done my research I had to come up with what my character was going o look
like so I done a couple of rough sketches to sort of get an idea of what my character was
going to be, I came up with a character with a mix between the fallout power Armor an h
black knight from dark souls, I knew this character would look unique an stand out from
other futuristic soldier types.
Week 4-5:
This week I had to come with a backstory and environment for my character, I came with
the idea of a soldier name Jack Harris, he lives in the US during the year 2205 were
drought and famine has caused mass chaos throughout the US with clans and tribes
being created in different states with the military barely being able to keep order.
Firearms are rare in this new future as a lack of resources has stopped the production of
bullets and explosives though some still remain, the military has had to result to using
older weapons such as swords, shields and armor. Jack was on a routine patrol when he
was attacked by a group of bandits, they literally tore him limb from limb removing both
his legs and arms, he was lucky to be rescued just in time although to save his live he
would have to be fused with prosthetic limbs, Jack being a soldier was equipped with
unique arms that allowed to attach and detached weapons to help him combat the
various tribes throughout the land. His body has to be completely covered in Armor, and
has o wear a helmet with a respirator to keep his breathing in check an keep him alive.
Week 5-6:
This week I actually started to design the model getting both the arms and legs done and
some of the torso:

Week 6-7:
His week I completed the model and textured it before doing he animation, after working
with a few animation ideas I decided to have the model show how he uses his weapons
to attack and fight, below are the 3 beauty shot of the model.
