Honestly, listening to the critique, it felt pretty depressing. Having presented our CA1 (Current Assessment 1) which involves the sharing of our concepts, storyboard and animatics with confidence, only to get shot down by the oppressing feeling of harshness. But well, it is part of the process to improve for the better. Taking the comments with a pinch of salt, our group moves forward into the next stage of production - 3D Layouts and more detailed models. I'm in charge of completing the 3D layouts, and I will put in my utmost effort to ensure its quality.
For the last month, our project, PURSUIT (for now), had its baseline established. Character personality was something I looked forward to create for our lovely characters. Without further ado, here is the bio of our 3 main characters - Racer, Destruct-o-bot and the Chaser-bots.

RACER
Created in the year 2510, Racer has always been alone since the beginning of his functionality. His creator vanished without a trace, and he had no one to rely on. Trusting no one, Racer manages to get by with his slick ways of maneuvering out of sticky situations. Literally. Although Racer believes that it is wrong break the law, he has no choice - else his life will be at stake. His presence anywhere in Nitro Town causes anyone to feel uncomfortable, due to his high intelligence and craftiness, much to his dislike. If there was something Racer is proud of, its neiter his speed, nor is it his ability to escape situations, but his pair of trusty boosters, X & Y. He hopes to find a friend he can rely on.
Destruct-o-bot
Programmed with the mindset of absolute justice, with a body of a colossus. A respected figure, Destruct-o-bot is a mecha designed to be the ultimate enforcer of the law. He delivers judgement to sinners with his fists, and when needed, his ulimate arm cannon. He has a straightforward personality and will do anything to accomplish his goal. However as time passes, the strength in his fists weaken as his compassion grows bigger. Destruct-o-bot seeks to give the wrong-doers another chance, only to get his thought processes forcefully overwritten. As such, this caused a fatal error in Destruct-o-bot's main circuitry , causing his entire system to malfunction. The result is Destruct-o-bot's memory being reset, and was sent to be a guardian of a power station.
CHASER BOT
The main drone of the police force. Although it might seem weak by itself, they overwhelm the enemy with sheer numbers. Not programmed to be the brightest, though.
Pretty cheesy at some parts, is it not? But whats a character without some personal flair that makes them stand out? The lonely thief and the compassionate executor. Sounds like they will make best buddies if there's a sequel.. If. Well, no stopping ideas from running amok~

As much as it needs to be improved, it just shows how much we can improve (have to think positive, okay T_T)
