As part of getting ready to move forward with the test run I needed to design 2 of the support characters which will aid in introducing El Capitan.
The first of these is El Gigante. This character was to be a towering 7 foot 2, 380 pound muscle bound wrestler (steroids, TRT, he's on the lot, JUICED!!!) inspired by the larger than life wrestlers of the WWE and their famous rants.
The second of these characters is the Ring Announcer. Being a big fan of MMA and the UFC I could only think of one man who we wanted to influence the design of the character, the best in the business, Mr Bruce Buffer......
......or at least.... his long lost latino, 5 foot 2 tall cousin.
I will do a quick 3D blockout of the arena as this proved most useful when carrying out the alien MMA fighter task (this can be seen here: Alien MMA Fighter Task).
As these are support characters for this particular scene The design process hasnt been as in depth as with El Capitan and The White Skull, however there is enough information here for me to move forward.
