At the beginning of week 3 I was unwell with what I assume to be a heavy cold and so I was unable to attend my first lesson on the Monday as well as my independent study on the Wednesday. however on the Thursday I was well enough to go into college and get back into learning the course. For My first lesson I was tasked with creating a creature out of a household item using Photoshop. I chose to create one out of a colander. below is my progress on the creature. I began with a basic outline using simple shapes, then I sketched the colander and added detail and Finally i created a suitable background of which I chose space.
In my second lesson on Thursday we began mood-boarding for our dungeons and dragons characters. I began thinking about an android character by gaining inspiration from the Alien movie as well as Blade Runner and Detroit Become Human
