Design progression

This hairslide was drawn whilst watching Metropolis, as was the design below. Iconic shapes and features such as the ten hour clock have been taken directly from the film's set.

introducing ideas for makeup

These ideas are heavily drawn from Frank R Paul's illustration work throught the 1930s along with modern day concept art for the Star Wars films. I have started to notice how merging such references brings out an art deco aesthetic, particularly when playing with the idea of giving the Archandroid a halo or wing shapes. The Archandroid is "the mediator between the androids and humans, an arch angel, like Neo in the Matrix". From these sketches I have picked out some graphics which keep repeating, such as lightning bolts and cogs. These silhouettes could be further integrated within the makeup for my model.
