Digital art practice - week three (self directed)

 My goal today was to establish what research was needed to come to the final outcome of my custom chest.

I decided to gather some real life subjects as well as game subjects to influence the work.

I was able to have some good correlating research which clearly demonstrates a parallel between my final outcome and the research.

I found it difficult to get first hand research for real life objects relating to my final chest. This is mainly due to it being an original idea and being able to get objects of a similar colour, size etc.
