Third Milestone

My third milestone is here, how time flies and this milestone is the one focused around the press pack to promote Outer Eden as a product but I will have to tell you this I'm not personally excited about this milestone as I feel I didn't have enough time to commit as I felt as if the cinematic has been taking precedence. Anyway I took some time out of 3D to create a few design ideas for promotional products to push the sale of Outer Eden which feed directly into a press pack. Below are a few designs for various products from T-shirts all the way to posters

When all of these where created I had to shift back into 3D as so far I had compiled enemy character, main character, vehicle and environment. The only thing I was missing in order to transition Outer Eden into being a 3rd person shooter and yes that is of course the weapon model, which is displayed below alongside the texture map I put together for it.











It's design is influenced by that of Halo's assault rifle with inspiration from the Gears of War lancer for the rear end just because it's design heavily suits Outer Edens appeal, but I have made adjustments to its overall design in terms of the energy powered style instead of using bullets as the Gears lancer and Halo assault rifle have.


Overall this week has been productive even is I didn't feel fully satisfied with my press pack milestone it's still been hit according to plan.
