After doing some research, I came across various skeletons and poses that I wanted my mermaid to be in. I mainly looked at diving poses and synchronised swimming for this and found a few poses I was happy with.
I then looked at skeletons, mostly of torsos since that is the human part of the mermaid.
By combining these skeletons with the poses on photoshop, I will able to align the bodies to suit the pose I'm aiming for and this was I can see the bones underneath the skin by altering the layer opacity of the pose above the skeleton layer.
Now I am looking at the skeletal structure of fish and marine mammals in order to start planning the anatomy of the mermaids tail.
TARGETS:
- Decide a pose for my character IN PROGRESS
- Do some research into human anatomy (specifically that of the torso) DONE
- Look at skeletons of fish, eels and shark cartilage. DONE
- Look at diving poses, renaissance poses and water reflection. DONE (water reflection will be done later on)
I have met the targets I set for myself which I'm happy to report!
MY NEW TARGETS:
- Finalise character pose
- Finish research and mood board
- Update making of guide
These targets MUST be met this week
