Some months ago, the inimitable Jon Davies asked me to do some internal promo art for a game his company, Megadev, was working on for Adult Swim. The game came out today, so now I can finally share this!
There wasn’t much in the way of existing art representing the game at that time, outside of Jon’s original proposal sketch, so I actually got a fair bit of creative leeway. Here are some of my initial character sketches.
And here are the compositional thumbnails.
I can’t even describe what a great experience this was. I’ve known Jon for some years, and working with him as an art director was just terrific. And his own art, in the game? Standout gorgeous.
Give it a play. Just watch out for those exploding tomatoes at the carnival, they’re brutal.
I love this main illustration and a peek at your sketches. I was inspired by your subject and style and painted a Tyrannosaurus Rex for my nephew’s 5th birthday. I’ll blog about it next week.
:D The sketch you showed on twitter? I can’t wait to see that completed!
Also really thrilled that I could serve as inspiration. More dinosaur art in the world can only be a good thing. :)
This game is the best one that I have ever played on the computer! It does not make it less awesome when I reveal the fact that it is the first and only game that I have ever played on the computer.
