Grey sheep….sheeps…..sheepin…etc.

Here are the resultant characters for our first project. Granted, they are remarkably - dare I say, suspiciously - similar in appearance. Ah, but there is a very simple reason for this: they are both sheep. Yes! It is true! However, you will note the different titles…we have first of all our generic sheep, to be used en masse to form flocks.

> White Sheep

Not to be (much) confused with what will become the titular character of the piece, the Black Sheep. He’s a bit smaller and stockier than the other sheep…hopefully to add some degree of cuteness/humour to his actions. Also, he sports a clever disguise, using a sweater to blend in with the rest of the flock whilst engaging upon covert nocturnal operations. Despite all this talk of NURBS as the embodiment of evil, destroyer of time and so forth, I am still determined to tame it…thus I tried again to make these fellows with NURBS. The results are better than before, I think.

> Black Sheep

A few more NURBS and polygons complete the ensemble, some innocuous little things just lying in wait to harvest wool from sheepish victims come springtime.
