I dedicated an entire week to creating the art assets for the village level. The items I worked on were a cherry blossom, two bridges, a lamp, a building, and a wasp. The cherry blossoms will float down elegantly from the sky, offering their shadows as a platform for the player. I drew inspiration for the art in this level from Japanese gardens and had to include the iconic red bridge.
Extra:
Along with the art work, I completed several online tutorials in order to learn how to draw and implement toon-shade coloring in illustrator. This was fun and a great learning experience. I'm impressed that I managed to create such a good looking Bart Simpson!
Quality:
Being new at using illustrator and having never toon shaded before, I did pretty well for this assignment. I know the images aren't perfect but a girl has to start somewhere and I know that my quality of work will improve as I get more practice. The bridges are nice and the cherry blossom is quite cute. The wasp is awesome. It was first drawn using a unique design Leif and I came up with and then I traced it using illustrator and used various ink brushes to get the painted shadow look. The wasp is my favorite artwork in the game to date.
