Making a model of Scrat the Bat. He's super wiry and scrawny so I'm using my paper mach and wire technique to begin with but I'm not sure about it… feeling like I should do something different rather than sticking to what I know but I want the model to be posable and sturdy. This is just a starting point and I'm sure he'll evolve.
Don't want the eyes to be embedded in the skull like that. I'd like to make some really wet-looking glass eyes to sit within the socket.
LOOK AT THAT SHADOW! CREEPY WEIRD. YES.
Not sure what material to cover the bat wings with because I want that translucency but also a strong enough material to bend when his arms move.
Cling film?
Latex?
Silicone?
The limbs move really well and he is super easy to pose! Maybe I can cast some faces to place on top of the skull and change his expression with each frame?
He's just looking a bit too human? Scrat is probably the most human-looking of the clan. Maybe I need to distort his proportions a bit more. Shorter limbs (or much longer - make it EXTREME).
Hanging upside down like a bat. OOOh yeahh. Need to make some hair and have it fall from his head with gravity. Could I make a cave-like setting?
Half-done paint job. Too grey. Needs to be a tad brighter. Want it to be wet-looking and covered in boils and warts.
