Early concepts

The narrative that I went with for my project was the story of Theseus and the Minotaur, as it is a favourite of mine, but also as far as I know it was never approached with stop motion in mind. These were my first concepts for Theseus the hero, instead of the more subtle appearance he takes throughout the story, I instead chose to portray him in his more heroic image, adding a bit more excitement to the final poster.



When drawing this sketch I not only looked at Greek pots for reference but also stills from historical based computer games.



This image I spent considerably less time on, a quick 5-10 drawing with a biro, always intended to be taken in illustrator for further development.
                         

                                

On this image I spent a bit more time, the hoplites appearance was based off a Spartan themed video game, with some changes on my part with the weapons and attire.
