Art Asset Overview #21
September 14th, 2011
This week I worked on the cat model for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here), and also practiced my 2D art. I have to paint regularly if I want to be able to make decent artwork, so I've been trying out some new techniques. One of the artists I've been looking at for inspiration is Ilya Repin, because ...

I have been really busy this week getting ready to go to Seattle for the Penny Arcade Expo, where I will be giving a talk about indie game art, but I still found some time to work on Overgrowth (which you can preorder here). I started working on the 3D cat models, and have been making good progress. However, characters ...
Editing sound effects video

For this video Tapio wanted to show off the editing that goes into a sound effect for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here). Tapio is hard at work making all sorts of new sound effects every week.

First, I've been working hard on some things I am not really ready to show yet, like pages for the next comic update. Also, I ...

July 1st, 2011
This week I added some new pottery to Overgrowth (which you can preorder here). The pottery will be useful for general props in a lot of areas of the game, but I also wanted to make sure I had enough to stock a shop, in case we want to include that. I may end up doing some alternate paint designs ...

This week for Overgrowth (which you can preorder here) I started on the shops. One nice thing about this set is that many of the things I make for it will usable as general props in all sorts of other situations. I read a lot of great suggestions for store ideas, so expect to see a lot more of this ...
