Venture: table top game art and what I’ve been up to lately

Hey guys!!

It seems like forever since I made a blog post…  sorry about that (and to you guys that have been naggin’ me about posting new stuff; thank you! It helps me keep up! )

I did art on a table top game called “Venture” from Øone Games a few months back, and now it’s out!! It is always awesome to see the product with the art implemented! This is the first time I’ve worked on a table top, so I was pretty stoked to see the images of the finished thing!

I did characters, item cards, a screen for the game master and the box cover!

Here is the box cover:

And some of the characters:

I had a great time working with Øone Games! Doing fantasy art like this is always fun, and one of the reasons I got into the business!
I’ll be back with more art from Venture later on!

Hope you guys like!

I haven’t blogged since April about what I’ve been up to lately..Jeez..

In May I started working at a game developer called Snowcastle in Oslo. I was hired on to do concept art on their first full length game and I’m having a blast these days! I’ve only been with them a couple of months, but it’s a great studio to work at! Lots of laughs and I’m learning new ways to work (I’ll show you guys results when I can! Promise! ;) ) and the guys I work with are great!

So I’m working full time for them, while doing freelance art like I posted now, collectible card games, and all kinds of cool stuff. Kinda eats into the time I have for blogging, but I’ll try to be good and post more!

I’m also on twitter, if you want more inane day to day stuff.. ;)

Thanks for stopping by people!

Nightmare concept #3

If this was for a game, the first two nightmare creatures would be “low level” enemies.. they’re pretty much basic and fleshy. That being said; I have no doubt that they’d be dangerous.

This next guy is a level up with a bony armour plate on his shoulder and upper part of his chest. Maybe I should think of some protagonists as well if this turns into a concept art for games fun side project.. we’ll see.. I’ll keep it fun though.

As always; click it for larger version :)

Monkey concept art

Hey guys! Been moving to a new apartment lately, painting my first bookcover (which was awesome to paint! Lotta back and forth, but it was a really cool gig!) and working on a pitch for a customer we’re hoping to rope in. Oh.. and a followup on the last post; I joined a contest over at conceptart.org called “Newborn”.. had a lot of fun doing that one :) A couple of chimps kinda snuck in there too. Obviously can’t show the cover until the book is released, but the Newborn piece and the chimps are all mine, so here ya go :D As always; click ‘em for larger versions :D

Concept art gallery updated + sketch

Hey guys! Just popping by with an update to keep it rolling! I’ve added a couple of pieces to the concept art gallery and a couple more sketches to that section of the site. Been keeping busy lately, which is good! Working on a film pitch with Daniel Røsnes and a large project at Desimal is what takes up most of my working hours these days. The woman with the red dress in the concept art gallery is a piece done for the project I’m working on with Desimal as well as the two profiles with the feathers. The movie pitch is under wraps for now, but I’ll show and tell when I can! I’m doing concept art (duh) and Daniel is workin’ the 3D magic! That dude impresses me constantly with his dedication to his craft and problem solving attitude!

Anyways.. that’s a short update, and I’ll leave you with a little quick sketch I did in ArtRage..the BG color is the same as on conceptart.org so it’s borderless on there.. just to explain the brownish tone :P If you’re interested in seeing the thing on the forums, and see more of my sketches and whatnot you can click here :)

MonkeyS.W.A.T. concept

Hey ya’ll! Been waaay too long since I’ve blogged anything! Been a lot to do lately though, which is awesome!

I’ve been painting environments a lot lately, and they are fun to do, but I wanted to just chill out and to a character concept.. So I did this dude after finishing up work today..Click for larger image

For some reason I had the “Equlibrium” movie in my head, and I always liked the gun kata concept they had goin’ on.. The style they developed for the film was kinda angular though, and I wanted to do something more dynamic so I went for a chinese monkey style kung fu pose only with guns.. Then I thought the chinese SWAT teams would probably be trained in something like that style in the near future :)

Hope ya digs!

Bridge over Angry Waters

ArtRage meets Photoshop for this enviro speedpaint.. around 2 hours, I think… I’ll probably revisit this one and refine it a bit, ‘cuz I kinda like it :)
