So, for this contest I scrambled around with a couple ideas that would be a little out of the norm and arrived at a WW1 German Fighter Ace. I really liked the idea of a WW1 pilot finding information about the manuscript and abandoning the war effort to seek out treasures beyond belief. A pilot that would take his aircraft from the trenches of France to the mountains of Kazakhstan or the temples of India.
The critical aspects of this character will revolve around the proper gear for the time, especially gear that would transform a military pilot into an adventurer while still being able to be identified as a German pilot. This weekend I'll be hammering out some sketches and creating a reference sheet to hopefully begin the sculpting process by Monday or Tuesday. I likely will avoid a stylized approach for this, and likely shoot for a more realistic character.
Any thoughts?
