Robot & Mammoo Creative Differences

After the robot was fully modelled, it had huge creative differences with Mammoo, this was due to the way I textured it. Using realistic textures such a industrialized metal gave the robot a near photo-real look whereas Mammoo textures painted from Photoshop  as a result Mammoo looked cartoony. This obviously was a problem as the robot wouldn't match the other character and the also the environment. 

At the point I had realised this, it was a bit too late for me to go back into the modelling and texturing process, so I was only advised to reflect upon this on a blog-post. 

This issue is probably cause by little communication between the team members. 

Below are the illustrations of Mammoo and the Robot.

Figure 1 are the painted textures done by my team member Jess, they are a simple 3 shades of blue, this definitely gave the character a cartoony look to it.

Figure 2 is the finished UV mapped version of Mammoo.

Figure 3 are the type of textures I used for my robot.

Figure 4 is the finally Robot, as you can tell the visual differences are broad.
