based on the short story by Juan Rulfo
The story tells the tale of an old man carrying his wounded, criminal son on his back in search of help in Mexico, as he reflects on their past and present.
WORK IN PROGRESS


3D SCULPTURE + MODELING
early specifications
- All modeled – no cloth or hair simulations
- To come: minimal texturing and shading – no noisy or glossy surfaces, matte
artistic style
- Modeling soft shapes with hard edges, with a subtle ‘miniature’ aesthetic – simplicity, appeal.
- An authentic historical depiction of character and costume.
- To come: surfacing that gives the impression of large woven fabrics and papery elements that imply a small scale and a touch of aged craft by hand.
