Backgrounds

Durg

    I made these during my trip to Disney. I came up with this idea of these hooded figures that each had a different power,these figures are called the Durg. The Durg would follow the orders of anyone who found them, and people would fight to have their power. It would turn out that the durg themselves are doing this to entertain themselves.

    This also gave me a chance to experiment with designing characters with a common theme and seeing how far I could take those design.

More Photoshop

The top three are done completely in Photoshop. The bottom one is line art from a sketch I did that I took into Photoshop.

Character Sheets

These are a few character Sheets the I did for Character Design class.

First up the Wolf Man.

I want to portray him as more friendly playfull version, kinda like a big humanoid puppy dog.

Now we have Medusa

I played with the snake theme but did not want to go the same route as many and use snake hair, so I opted to give her a cobra hood.

Another character

This is another character I did both in 2D and 3D. This was for my zbrush class so I decided to do character I often draw and bring him into the 3D realm, his name is Semek.

The 2D art was once again don in Photoshop. 

                                           The 3d was done in Zbrush using base geometry from 3DS Max

My name is Chris Ricci and I am currently a animation student at the New England Institute of Art. This blogs purpose is to showcase projects I have done there or art using the skills I have aquired over the years from my classses.

To start this blog I will first show a character I did in both 2D and 3D, I call him the Artificial Ninja.
