So today I was creating a soldier for the sprite army using one of Kyle's designs as a reference. The finished character is on the left to this paragraph. As far as we have planned, all the sprite army will consist of this character with different guns, eyes and probably little details like scratches on the helmet. There will also be other characters within the stopmotion which are being produced by Kyle.
Apart from making the primary soldier, I also planned what the set will look like in rough. One side of the set will be 3D, where the toy soldiers will originate from. The other side will be all 2D, which the sprites will take residence in.
The 2D side will have flat hills in the background and even the tower will be 2D with a gap to move sprites freely. The 3D side will have the hills carved into foam or wood, aswell as the tower also made from the same material.
We are also thinking of having helicopters come in at some point so we need to find a way to have them 'hover' over the scene.
Until next time.
Pete.
