Specialism

Proposal

For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to be a 2D concept artist and learn about how to become a successful artist. I would like to enhance my skills by drawing vehicles, weapons and environments, as these are my main interests.

During this project I aim to achieve successful final detailed work. I would like to be able to produce a respectable amount of work and vastly improve my digital drawing skills on Photoshop. In the past projects most of my work has been more of a cartoon art style, with this project I want to try something different and go down a more realism feel with my art work.

I have a huge fascination with our worlds past history, especially the wars. I would like to learn more about how weapons and vehicles where designed for the sole purpose to end another human beings life. I will look at how they were designed and what different makes of weapons where invented during the World Wars. I want my work to reflect that although weapons and tanks look cool they are weapons designed to kill. I also would like to draw environments but I have to be careful not to just show how horrific wars are so I will avoid just having blood, death and limps flying on a battlefield. Most of my work will be designed on exisitng things as I want to keep the realistic feel and this will help me get an eye on perspective.

Assessment work

My work plan is to be able to produce the following;

·         Thumbnail designs for weapons and vehicles (minimum of 12)

·         Final designs for vehicles (minimum of 3)

·         Final designs for each weapon type ( example 2 pistol, 2 rifle and 2 sub machine gun)

·         Environment designs (minimum of 4)

Because I know I have been chosen for the Archant project for the first few weeks most of my time will be aimed towards that, due to the fact I had no clue on my idea or that it would have been chosen. Therefore I believe this is an achievable goal in the time I will have left.
