Week 09 - Value, Form and Lighting - Armored Tank

During this week's lesson we watched a video on lighting.

We were given a blank image of these boxes where we used what we learned from the video to colour them in. This was really useful as I'd never learned these rules before.

Our assignment was to create an armored tank to show what we learned. I created a mindmap of some tanks to help with my design as I'm not good at machinery.

Using features from different tanks in the mindmap I made a sketch of a tank.
 Next I made the lineart. As I made most of the lines straight, I held down shift on Photoshop to ensure a neat image.
 I used fill to colour each section as the lineart was already neat enough to use.
 Without the black lines it is easier to see the form of the tank.I made lots of slanted and odd ledges so it was difficult to work out what shade each part needed.
Although I didn't fully paint it this was good practice as I had to keep in mind which direction the light was coming from and work it out as I went along.
