This model of a Cyborg Cowboy was made for a job deal with Full Sail University. I along with my friend were given the chance to design an official character model as well as a level to fit the characters’ theme and personality. I am primarily a character artist so I designed, textured and modeled the character. I wanted the character to look like an assassin warrior. In his past he suffered a massive injury where the only way to keep him alive was to turn him into a cyborg. Many design decision were made with theme of combining the old attire of cowboys with futuristic renditions of them, mixing both human and robotic aspects of the design to reflect the duel nature of the character. For example I made the Gaucho pants into metal cyborg legs. I made the spurs on the boots into mini buzz saws. He uses a visor to find his targets faster. I chose the red and black color for intimidation purposes and I removed the stomach to bring more attention to his cyborg body.
Overall I like how it all turned out.
