Directed Study Project "Cerberus Pistol" - Reference Material

So you might be wondering, why would I choose to model a Gun in Maya? Well that's a very easy answer, because this particular gun is awesome.


Vincent Valentine is a character from the Final Fantasy franchise, known for his appearance in Final Fantasy 7, Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus. I have chosen to model his default gun for this project; the Cerberus Pistol. The gun itself is a triple barreled, triple cylindered revolver ornamented with scroll-work patterns and the three heads of Cerberus. The gun is derived from greek mythology, based on Cerberus; the dog that guards the gate to Hades' Underworld.

Below I've got reference material of the Gun itself in Side View, Front View and 3/4 View, including close ups of different aspects of the gun and a different colour scheme. This is going to help me create it in Maya.

Digital Sculpting - Soldier Research

Since I have started to work on the Driver for my Biosuit, I have decided to take a look into the potential dress I could give to my soldier. Below is a collection of reference images I will use to construct the soldier for use in the Biosuit.
