I know I have just used this mostly for school, but since my consept class is over now. (A long time ago) I won’t have to worry about what my teacher said about this being just for school!
So since I have turned my other blog into a site for doujinshies, I will try and post my stories and art work on this one ^.^I have an account at deviantart, but I will post the pictures here too ^.^ I will start with a random picture just to have some fun XD
I really like this picture, and it is one of the ones I am most pleased with without looking at too much reference pictures ^.^
Go Johan! ^-^

The year is over, and the task has come to an end, and I thought I should post the two last pictures I made for the task ^.^
I originally planned on making this the main poster for the idea, but I got told by Amanda that it wasn’t dynamic enough, and that I should keep working on a previous picture.
I don’t know if it turned out the best, but I am quite pleased with both of them ^.^
————————————————————————–
Well, this is it for Gravity Unlimited for now, as far as I know. I might keep working on it, and I hope we get a equally fun task next semester =)

I got told at the presentation that I missed a picture that could tell a little of what was going on without having text with it. I don’t know if this picture is good enough, but I at least think it fits under the name Gravity Unlimited.
I plan on trying to colour this in photoshop, and that will be my last work for this assigment, the painting is done, and I found out it would take too long time to try and make the 3D studio task in time. But I will also post a brief summary of the story for the game.

As I understood, this time we are going to show our work for the group, then the group have ten minutes to say something about it, before I have five minutes to protect my work. To make it go fast I will post links to all my pictures here, together with the names of the work.

1st try on Cian and Ryuunosuke
The end of the world, and you stand alone
3d studio max:
This is what I have gotten done so far, but I also plan on make a lot more drawings, and I will do my best in setting the story together before the task is done.
Cian and Cain May 1, 2008
Posted by ankichan in Anki things, Drawings, gravity unlimited.add a comment
I have already made a lot of pictures of Cian, and I made one of Cain too, but I weren’t happy with it, so I have used a little time now to make a picture that I could accept.
My idea of Cain is that he is an older version of Cian, so I tried my best to draw them a little similar. Other than that I wanted to draw him kind of pretty in the same way that I drew Cian kind of cute.
Cain 2nd try:
I had some problems with where to put the hands but I think it turned out ok in the end, I loved that shirt part from under the vest, it is a longer version of the shirt that Cian has out from under his vest.
Then I decided to draw a picture from the end of the game, where Cian has to face up to the sins he commited as Cain. Even thou the pain can’t hurt Cain, who can’t see the bad in killing, it is strong enough to destroy an innocent as Cian.
To explain the difference between Cian and Cain, it is the childhood that is the key. Imagine a person that has grown up with death and that sees humans as nothing but lower beings he can do what he wants with. And then, if that person got a second chance, a second childhood, where he got brought up with love and care, would he then be a different person?
This is Cain and Cian, the same person created from two possible directions. One living his life as a vampire, seeing humans as food and nothing more. While Cian was brought up by the faceless ones, learning to love from the creatures Cain looked at as food and servants.
But in the end, is Cian’s few years with love enough to keep him above Cain’s hundred year old life with death and murder? And in the end, will Cian be alone to face the comming punishment?
The end of the world, and you stand alone:
Working on Cian in 3D studio Max – part 2 April 27, 2008

I have worked a lot on this since last, but it has gone a little slow since I have a lot of other stuff too do too, but I have gotten the body done, and have started on the head. What might take a while later is to acctually be able to make good hair, since we have only before learned to set up really low polygon hair, and I have decided to try and make belivable hair for this one.
5. I started on trying to make the part of the shirt that stands out under, I made it the same way I made the vest, just that I tried to make it have some clothes form to it.
6. When I made the hands I started with fitting them into the vest, so you won’t see that they are not connected to any body if you watch from the side. They became a little chubby at some places, and I might not have made the joints right, but that can be arranged later. After I were done with one hand, I mirrored the other and put it on the other side of the body to make some less work.
And thus I were done with the body, and have now started on the head!
7. When making the head you start out in a new scene, and build it just like with the body, just that you only need two pictures, one of the side and one from the front. Then you make a box that covers the face both in front and from the side, before you cut away half of it, and mirror the box. this way you don’t have to do everything two times and use much time to get the head to look alike from both sides. (Even thou the human head isn’t symetrical) Then you build up the form of the head, so it ready to be molded into the face you want.
I will soon be done with the head if I work fast, so I can try and show the figure for the second presentation in May. But I don’t think I will be able to make the skeleton for the body before we are going to deliver the task.
But I will also use a lot of time to make more pictures, maybe try to draw the town of the faceless ones, and also I will have to draw a paiting of Cain, as he is as important to the story as Cian.

It is time for our first presentation of our work so far, and I just thought I would post my overview of the presentation here so I will know just what to talk about and in what order.
1. My idea, concept, genre and what is inspiring me to make what I am.
2. How I will work on this and what I have been working.
3. My sketches so far and explanation for each:
- Castle of memories (last room)
- Ryuunosuke (The faceless one)
4. Problems I might have with picking up all the pieces of the puzzle inside the story and making it into something understandable.
5. What I plan on showing forth for the exam.

Just uploading some progress^.^ gotten to the hair on the painting, but have decided to spare the screenshot to I am finished, but I will post a picture of Cian here to show that I am working all I can on this task=) It is so fun XD
Other than this I am working on the idea of multiple endings. There is three options, two of them is the two original endings, while there is a perfect clear ending that will end in a happy! happy! ending. I have already written down the cut scene for the original ending, and I am thinking about making a story board for one of the scenes if I have time and it fits into the task=)

So I decided to color something, and since I guessed that most in my class colored in Photoshop, I decided to do something different.
I am taking on the task of painting my picture of Cian on real canvas, this is just a small task so I will have more to show off at the end of the year.
Just to be warned, I don’t have any camera, and I can’t scan the canvas, so I have to use my cellphone for the screenshot, so it is a little blurry, and I haven’t gotten further than the clothes yet XD.
I’m going to continue painting during the weekend ^.^ I will post the progress.
2nd try at the character designs March 1, 2008

I have tried on the character designs for the second time. I decided to make the lead character a little older than I first intended too, since I don’t think the rest would make any sense if he were to young.
I found names for the two lead characters, and I am working on writing the story, and also on adding a bad guy. Since there is no good games without least one bad guy to help the plot thicken.
2nd try on Cian (Ancient):
Even thou I made him older, he still seems a little like a kid, but that is intended. As one is dark, a younger part can also represent the light from the older and darker self, and if you reunite the two parts, you will get a whole person, with both light and dark.
2nd try on Ryuunosuke (Dragon shell):
Ryuunosuke is one of the faceless ones, and what makes him different from the rest is that his mask is crumbling, and that is looked at as a disfigurement by the others, as they have never seen a face before. The faceless ones have masks as their face, some have of stone, some of diamond, and things like that, and most of them end up drawing on the surface, in the depths of their mind reaching out for the a identity long lost.
They live in the safest part of the crumbling world, the gravity bridge between them and the dark castle at the other side and a shield made by the lord of the castle keeping their town from getting dragged into the gravity field.
But it all slowly changes, as Ryuunosuke finds Cian, waking him up from a slumber the lord of the castle once put him into.
