So, bit of a game related topic, but it's on art..sooo...

Working on a tactical game for the solstice comp, just finished up the first pass for character/class portraits. I've looked at this thing so long I can't judge it's result.


Going for something very rough and mildly simple, since I have less than a month to do everything. Pleasant? No?

I think it looks great. Are you going to be able to make enough of them given the time limits though? It seems like quite an endeavour.

I should be able to, this really didn't take long once I decided on a style, the lines were like..a fifteen minute scribble on the back of a notecard. I'll likely not do individual portraits for all the subclasses, just recolor them.

Ill bet she could.

Joy, you should do something like this with them.. dunno why seems like it mitebkool.

Spoiler for:

Okay, I suck at Photoshop, but something along those lines. I think you'd totally get what I'm trying to show. If not I could find a stock photo somewhere...

EDIT: Hah, of all the examples, look what came up first.

Spoiler for:
See how the bottom edge is like that, I think they'd be cool like that.

As in make the terminal edges of the portrait just paint strokes essentially? I've thought of that.

Exactly(just getting back into non-photographic arts since high school, so I got no terms lol), either just the bottom or all edges would be cool.

Can't wait to see this project come along Joy, keep up the grand work.
