Testing Chester - Character Concepting WIP

### Meet Chester ###

![Chester 1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQRn3TW6WARrGRNL3tp79PwQ4KntEM9GxEbeEonx9NMrR/Chester%201.jpg)

A while ago I got a chance to do all of the concept artwork for a proposed TV show. This show was being proposed to go into production in the fall and I am not sure at this point if it will or not. This is the first time that I have ever done concept work for a TV show and I had a tone of latitude in the work. I was responsible for creating a whole galaxy. I did many buildings, ships, and even characters. Chester is one of the tests that I have tried. He is a completely smart assed Robot.

![Chester 2.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmSF2WZEUdJVubPxdyAecmSnGWwCfdj1Vr78Worjso8ge2/Chester%202.jpg)

The reason that I am showing just the bust in these images is because the director wanted to get some ideas for different humanoid robots to see if that was even the direction he wanted to go in. There was a chance that he was looking for a multimedial robot so he had me do some studies of humanoid robot faces.

I would have to say that doing character art is not one of my strengths so I was glad that I just had to submit some busts. Chester is one of several that I did.

I really could have done what is known as a turntable animation where the character spins in front of you so you can see what it looks like from various angles. For some reason the director was not interested in that and just wanted a series of stills.

For not being a character artist I don't think that these came out too bad. I wanted to have my son who is an awesome character artist do them for me but he was busy on a project already. So for what it is worth, this is my attempt at the bust of Chester.

The bust took me about 2 hours to do. But I am not a very fast character modeler so other people could have done what you see much faster.

I suppose it would be possible. I was just contracted to do some busts. I will see if I can do something character modeling is not one of my strengths.
