About:I'm a college sophomore in Evansville, Indiana. I'm learning game design and 3D modeling/animation as a hobby. I work as a DJ as well as the web manager at our campus radio station. I'm interested in replicating things from movies and games such as weapons and armor, enemies, and other well known objects like logos, emblems, and titles. I work a lot with cardboard, my computer, and my sketchbook. It's my goal to be able to make anything from my head onto paper, my computer, and even real life.
My sketchbook looks great. I got 18 professional design markers for christmas, and the plastic holder they came in is falling apart..... So I'm making a holder for them next (from cardboard, of course). I intend for the holder to be radial, and with the ability to revolve around an axis. I'll probably make three 60-degree cover pieces (each smaller than the next) that cover the holder, and can fit inside eachother. A handle on the largest outermost will probably come as well. I can't wait to get started!
Okay, I'm looking out the window of my quarters, and I'm pretty certain there's a cloud/swarm of gnats, or mayflies, or mosquitoes swarming outside... I'm getting the shotgun, and the swords out.
Had an idea today. I think I'm going to make armor that attaches to the outside of the plates on my costume. There are several types of armor- air (pneumo)-white fire (pyro)-red combustion (dynamo)-orange shock (electro)-yellow nuclear (nuclear)-yellow green chemical (venom)-green ice (cryo)-light blue sound (phono)-turquoise water (hydro)-blue time/space (chrono)-blue violet ectoplasmic (phantom)-violet electromagnetic (polar)-pink silver (murcury)-grey light (photo)-mixed/different colors dark (black)-no colors (off) I simply have to make attachable pieces of armor for each one, and strap it to the costume whenever I want to have an armor type, and change the helmet iris/suit LED color to whatever I want. So if I want to be "venom", all I have to do is make "venom" armor that goes on top of the suit, and connect battery to the LED's in the "venom" armor. (yes, I am a little obsessed aren't I)
