Beyond Contact - Characters

Beyond Contact - Characters and Units

Here are some of the character work that i did for Beyond Contact - as someone who isn't really a character artist, it was a chance for me to do something that I really wanted to accomplish ever since I started working for video games - to have at least one character asset in a video game.

Cence, Clawtooth NPCs: Rea Kim

Shown here is the wireframes for the previous picture.	Underneath the helmet, one can see how reptilian the character looks.	There's a lot of geometry in this view - a lot of polys were put here for the animator to put in a wide range of movement.

This now shows the first tier's wireframes - notice the polys in the scarf.	Increasingly, the suit tiers for this character become much more mechanical - as can be seen in the second tier here.	In the wireframe, one can look at the areas where I added extra geometry, such as the helmet - for the bakes to render cleanly.
This is the pinnacle of the tiers in game - the character almost looks robotic inside this third tier suit.	Shown here is the wireframes for the third tier of this character's suits.	This is a special kind of suit that can maximize one's breathing in-game, as the name suggests.
One can notice in the wireframe that I recycled a lot of parts from the basic suit.	In-game, this suit can provide your character with protection in extremely hot environments.	In the wireframe, one can see the polys I devoted to the robe, so that it can keep up with any running motions.
For the next character, here's the Corvex - an enemy unit that can cloak itself and sneak behind you.	A lot of polys were added to the tongue, as it would need to lash the player with it.	Now here is Cence, an NPC for one of the side quests the character must do, and the first character in game that I ever did.
Shown here are the wireframes for this character.	This other NPC named Clawtooth that I made is another personal favorite of mine - the spiky frills and the huge fish skull were a delight to make.	There's a lot of polys here in the wireframe, as I had to make sure it can be animated in it's full glory.
