THE GOOD, THE BAD &

THE SILENT TYPE

3D DIGITAL DESIGN

FIONA DOLLAN

Barbie has a dark side, maybe a alter ego or just badass!

BRIEF -INITIAL BARBIE CONCEPT

My personal background influenced my decision on creating a western

cowgirl style character, she looks good on the outside but can rough it with

the men.

Moving on from Cowgirl

Barbie, I decided to create a

guy instead of a gal,

because I wanted more

attitude for in my

character.

CHARACTER GENDER?But then I changed my mind…

• Silent Character

• Has lost his way

• You cant figure him out

• Suspense on his next move

• Good or Bad guy?

HIT MAN CONCEPT

MOVIE TRAILER DRIVE

COWBOYS AND ALIENS

THE LOOK• I want to stay away from the clean cut pretty boy, I want to portray his

history on his face. Scars, age, weather worn.

• A lot of legendary characters examples for influence.

TASH & BROWS

Sam Elliot, big moustache and the attitude with his eyebrows.

• Cool exterior with no expression but maybe a prop like a cigar or bloody

scar to accentuate how tough this guy is.

• Artist Siamak Roshan, like the wrinkles and expression.

MENTAL RAY

COWBOY STYLE

The basics, can include a lot of different combinations...

Face usually hidden behind the hat,

although I like how you can only see

the bottom of the face and strong

jaw bone, because you would

probably see the fear in his eyes.

BIKER STYLE

• Leather Jacket or Pilot Jacket

• Ray Ban Sunglasses.

• Biker Boots

• Heavy Chains and Rings

• A lot of black!
