Sub-Zapper - character design

Ah. This was a painful game to work on.
So many weird looking sea creatures. So much to research. So much redesigning.


Step one: research - and a lot of it
Step two: concept drawing. - they may not be the best drawings, but you gotta start somewhere
Step three: more research (this is mainly due to the creative block + unsatisfying concept drawings)
Step four: deciding on characters to develope.
Step five: concept development.



This here is a few concept drawings I did of Dunkleosteus, the prehistoric fish. I quite liked how ugly and distinctive its face was. - measured 6 m (20 ft)


Giant Orthocone is prehistoric squid-like creature which measured up to 10 meters in length (33 feet!)


Final character - the boss:
Giant mosasaur was a carnivore marine reptile, and could measure 17 metres in length (that's... almost 56 ft?!)


Thankfully the design of the submarine didn't take as long. Neither did the splash pages + additional artworks. I'm just glad it's over!

DinoSawUs Mirror Mirror

Steampunked mirror!
This particular design is where the players will get to choose their avatar.

Another concept for a window for picking an avatar:

And some of my awesome concepts:

Fireflies

Backgrounds for Fireflies game. We now have a few games to keep the audience happy for a wee while, so that's good news.

I'd upload other splash pages too but it's home time and I'm hungry.




And of course: concepts!: (I like my pencils much more than the tablet)



Character Incubator!

This is a post-login screen where the kids can pick their own character.
After several hours of discussing + talking nonsense, this is what we decided upon:


Where it all started:

Dino Daily

Issue 2!
There were a few additional pages, but it's all set, and we've decided to settle for 10 pages.
Now it will never be as painful to publish another newspaper as when I had to design all the pages for the first issue.
