The original idea for my FMP was a ruined jungle temple. I
was looking at temples in Cambodia but soon realised it was overdone. Just a
quick search on youtube provided numerous results of other levels.
Rethinking
my idea, I then thought of using the same idea, but in a different style. In
bali, and island in Indonesia, they have a very unique style of carving. I find
them very inspiring, and basing my project off of these I think I will be able
to sustain my interest over the time needed to complete my fmp. It’s difficult to describe these carvings, but
I can show you in pictures a lot easier.
Because of their history, they have their own version of
Hinduism. These statues around the island are unique to the area. They also
look a lot of fun to sculpt, and over the holidays I had been trying out z
brush. This is a quick head I modelled to test out sculpting these carvings, to
see if it would be possible.
To start off with, I have collected a lot of reference
images. Creating mood boards was the next step.
Hopefully, combined with some
concepts and paint overs, this would be enough to convince people at the
presentation it’s a good idea.
