As part of one of our contextual studies, a lady called Helen McCarthy, who has had a lot to do with Japanese media, came to one of our lectures. As part of this talk we were set an optional external project where we were required to create a game version of ourselves.
     This is the start of my work upon this project

     I am quite a fan of boxing so I thought it would be quite cool if my character was a fighter in some kind of underground arena. I havn't quite decided just how much of a fantasy element I want to this character, therefor they may be additional inclusion of gauntlets, flame hands etc.
      Helen McCarthy has, amongst other things, written a number of books- focusing particularly on anime. More information can be found here.
