Office Hours: pre-production model design








As promised, here are some pictures of pre-production 3d models created by co-director/animator Shane Sheils for Dwarfed Films latest film "Office Hours". This is a 3d turnaround of the lead character from the film, a fat lonely office worker.
This is the basic mesh before being textured, rigged and clothed but you should get the general idea of what the completed character will look like before being lit and rendered. The mesh has been kept to below 10,000 vertices (when subsurfed.)
More images will be uploaded shortly including models of buildings and other various locations.
