Gramps: Character Development

Development went a bit dodgey when I realised I was yet to create Gramps. After focusing on the Jokid, Garden Gnome and Batgnome characters as the main characters, I completley forgot about this character. It took me until I was about to start the animatic to realise he ahdn't been made. As is has gone so far for a large chunk of this semester, I realised I was, once again, well behind schedule. It was too late to model, texture and rig another character from scratch and so I was forced to cut a massive corner for this poor character. I ended up creating a rectangular prism and texturing front and rear view sketches of Gramps to it to create his character. I died a little inside when I realised it was all i could do at this point in the semester, but its not a huge problem for the animatic as he reprises only a small role.

below are some screenshots of Gramps:
