Environment speedpaint

Sunday, April 17th, 2011

Hey guys!

Had some spare time to just paint today. This is what came out of it. I want to get better at environments, so I just started slopping color and shapes around, and then I saw this valley with floating mountains, and you gotta love floating mountains, right? Anyway.. trying to do some concept art that is outside of my comfort zone, which is mainly characters and such. Hope I managed to convey some sense of scale with this as well!

Winds of Edéa concept art

Tuesday, February 15th, 2011

Hey guys! I got the greenlight to post some concepts from “Winds of Edéa”, the game we have in production!! Yay!! The game will be presented in proper at Nordic Game in Malmö in May this year.

I do various stuff on the game, so I’m posting a character, some buildings and an environment.

These were all done relatively early on after I started at Snowcastle, so some of these are like 9 months old now I think. My AD has posted some stuff over at his blog as well, so head on over there if you want to see more stuff!

Anyway.. less talk, more art! Hope you guys enjoy!

Environment speedpaint and studies

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

Hey guys!

Had some time today for a little speedpaint in addition to my studies! Woohoo! The concept of a hidden city in the jungle is a very cool one, and I don’t think I’ve explored it before, so I did today. I kinda like this 30 minute sketch, so I think I’ll refine it and do a finished piece of it. (Click for larger version)

I have been thinking about adding another sub page to the site for a while where I would do a more in depth look at individual projects and pieces. I would very much like your thoughts on this. If you’d find it interesting or rubbish and if it’d be nice to see some steps, thoughts and background on what I do both with professional work and personal art? I’d arrange it so there would be some more meat to each post so to speak. Say if there’s a particular world I’m developing, you’d get to know a bit more than just the final pieces.

Do leave a comment on here about that! Very interested in hearing you guys’ thoughts!

Right.. and the studies :)
