Hey guys!!

I have a class tomorrow night that I gotta prepare for so I just wanna throw some ideas here to start the discussion.
Through our discussion on the fb group we have:

STORY & CHARACTERS
Knights/witches/demons that are mechs, Fantasy/horror oriented

Some story suggestions:
Macbeth storyline?
Human vs Non human stuff?
Different clans with different level of technology efficiency maybe? Different geological significance & Climate?
Have division of Good vs Evil? (or just have 2 simple clans)


AESTHETICS
Crazy shapes and proportions, still with an element of realism
INSPIRATIONS:
Ian McQue
Nico Marlet, Cory Loftis (animation oriented)
Mikhail Borulko
Emerson Tung
Ashley wood
Andrew Mar
Thomas Scholes
Mikhail Rakhmatullin
....
(this list def needs shortening to make our style cohesive 0.0)

But since I'm so pumped for the clan idea, here's what I was thinking:
I don't know if you guys were familiar with the 4 temperament, (like in Divergent with the 5 fractions. and game of thrones of course) which divides people into 4 types: sanguine, choleric, melancholic and phlegmatic.
here's a graph that explains it
Those really resemble different clan's characteristic traits and their resembling geological significance. Throw in a 5th one (maybe a clan who's characteristics is slimy and is between good and evil? Live in a swamp or smth like Andrew mentioned), and this could besomething that we can turn into a interesting world dynamic. We can all take ownership of one and go crazy with sketching. They can be divided into 2 good vs 2 evil, or those 4 could be together against the 5th clan.

I don't know if this is making things way too complicated or too poetic sounding...but the clan idea made me think of this, so just throwing it out there :D

No time to do mood board stuff today.. but yeah.
