I created a model sheet for my robot character, Viva-1, using physical means (pencil, pen, paper), and then scanned it. I then used Photoshop do remove the paper background, and therefore leave only Viva-1's components.
I tried to remove the strange pink tinge that the scanner decided to give the components, but after doing so, I decided that I'd like to keep it. It adds a feel of humanity and life to the otherwise metallic robot.
The next thing I did was cut out each individual component on the model sheet, so I can then maneuver them separately in Flash. I am yet to cut out the individual mouth shapes however.
All these components were stored on my USB Drive, although I shall move them so that they are local to my PC, just in case anything horrific happens.
