Doing some research

I have been looking for some Mummy's I can base my character on. Here's a couple I have found.

I'm going to have my mummy still wrapped up in the bandages. There weren't as many 3D animated Mummy's as I thought there would be so that's interesting.

What I have found is that Mummy's don't just look like people covered in bandages, they just look like old dried up dead guys. I have found some more images that I want my Mummy to look like.

At this point I'm not sure if I'm going for a realistic looking Mummy or a cute cartoon looking Mummy. I'll probably end up with a mix of both. Personally I hate when 3D animations try to look too real and prefer them to still have a cartoon style.

I'm also not sure what to do with the face yet. I feel like I want to have some of the Mummy's eyes showing but not sure if it will have a distinct mouth yet. Although it will be easier to portray it's emotions with a distinct mouth, I don't know if that's the look I want for my Mummy.

I am going to be doing a whole lot of drawings to try and get the Mummy looking right. Stay tuned!!
