so, the idea here is that since DC decided to kill off the Bat, i wanted to look at what Gotham would become without him, in particular what Commisioner Gordon would have to become to handle a city that out of control. i wanted to avoid the cliche'd eyepatch and scar routine so the face has stayed firly clean, there's some faint scarring to it but's old and fadeed surface stuff at this point. finished from concept to completion over the month of August, and the gameartisans wip thread can be found here: http://www.gameartisans.org/forums/showthread.php?t=10381

and these are the breakdown shots:

had some time today so i whipped up some new concepts for a couple of characters.

The man named Gray, not necessarily from the same story as Cyrus, but from the same world, Gray is at first glance a typical wandering-gunslinger for higher.]]> Wed, 23 Jul 2008 02:05:31 +0000 http://scudzalmighty.cgsociety.org/gallery/625826

With Once Upon a Time finished and up for sale,
(http://onceuponatime.wakinggames.com/)
the desire to make a sequel is painfully hard to ignore, especially when there's so much that can be done with such a great concept.

Where in the first game characters were chosen more as general archetype's, the Hunter (or woodsman) is fairly specific to Little Red Ridding Hood and maybe one or two other tales. my biggest concern with his design is making sure that players know exactly who he is and what he's about when the see him.

The axe is pretty straightforward (and yes i know about the wonky perspective) but i think i need to actually say that he's holding a bear-trap(upside-down) in his right hand. i've gone through quite a bit of reference and this seems to be the most common design, i think if the chance to actually make the game comes about i'll go for the more stylised Resident Evil 4 version, where it's just the teeth rings on a chain.

i've tried for a more loose/cartoon style for the image itself, which i think has turned out pretty damned good as well

thanks for your time
any thoughts or comments would be great]]> Sun, 28 Jan 2007 02:06:34 +0000 http://scudzalmighty.cgsociety.org/gallery/384211

the Carnival King began life a few years ago as a sort of cross between Jack Skellington and Freddy Kruger, as his design has progressed i've tried to make him more a creature of the depths, not necisarily of the sea, but evoking those qualities. ]]> Fri, 21 Jul 2006 23:42:37 +0000 http://scudzalmighty.cgsociety.org/gallery/460307

i really should have been working, but when your job is retail and passion is imagination, some things just seem more important
this is the first in a series of little sketches i've done, all on 4x6 note pads with a ball-point pen, usually about 20 minutes a piece,







photoshop is listed as the software, but only because thats what i used to scan it in]]> Tue, 06 Feb 2007 04:29:56 +0000
