Dashing Mouse
I made this little guy for my creature design class at SNHU. I had to design and create a creature that would fit into a notion game-concept. In this case it was a children's racing game that took place inside a family home. I had to come up with the backstory, concept art, the character sheet, the low and high poly and create a turntable. Additionally I rigged and posed the little guy. The final game-ready model came in at 7764 tris.
please don't steal his cheese.
His eyes were rigged and animated to blink.
In game this guy would get spooked by the player driving nearby and dash away knocking over any objects in the way which would create additional obstacles on the racetrack for the player to dodge.
Ultimately I chose the bandana and the glasses.
In the original concept I played a bit with different accessories and color patterns to make him more interesting.
