#88 Character Design- Board Game

My advertizing team and I are assigned to create a board game from scratch.  I was in charge of making the game pieces and characters for the graphics and cards, as well as designing the "book covers".

This was a pretty fun project considering what I've had to put up with this "team" class all year.

trying different styles

Africa

Asia

South America

Australia

Europe

Antarctica

North America

Above are the character designs and below are the book cover designs.  The game is called "culture Quest" and all the characters represent a certain continent.  Here, each character has a book in which they will have a unique adventure.  One of my other team members put the text on them, so I don't really have names for them or their little books!  You can make up adventures for them, instead.  ;)

And the game pieces!

THESE ONES were lost and I had to make new ones :(

but it's ok! THESE ONES turned out great :)

Africa- Elephant
Asia- Small boat
South America- Submarine
Australia- Airplane
Europe- Hot Air Balloon
Antarctica- Large Boat
North America- Grand Prix Car


I used pretty shiny paint, so that was fun.



Here's the final game all together!

#84 Christian Bale and other digital things

Pretty happy with how it turned out

It was a pretty fun project! I'm going to draw other silly celebrity portraits in future, definitely.  More of them being traditional probably...but Photoshop painting is still pretty nice.

Here's some landscapes out of my head as an exercise in class.  We weren't supposed to use any reference of any kind...although most people did anyway... I don't understand why these people are in art school!!  Get those creative juices.

I'm redoing the "Dapper Dan" project in Illustrator, and I must say, it's taking forever.  Well... at least it's clean! CLEAN LINES SO CLEAN.  Gonna be worth the time working on this sucker so it's likely I'm giong to be hiding away for the next few days in my art cave.
