Animation

Working on getting a video up of it, but heres a screencap of Gretel's walk animation

brain storms

Thought I'd post some of my brain storms, just to get the idea of how some of the ideas come about and the details of certain characters, areas etc.









Some of them repeat themselves, suppose it keeps my mind fresh :D

some research

guhhh slow on the updates I am.

While I'm sorting through art to upload for now I'm just putting up some links to photostreams of actual asylums and abandoned buildings so I can keep the links stored somewhere for further use. Useful to know the layout of real asylums.

Update status

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh

Sorry about the lack of updates lately. Deadline on my dissertation's creeping up on me so I've been working on that.

In the mean time here's what Gretel looks like with the painter background behind her, yeh that background isn't finished yet. I'll try get a video up of it sometime and I did attempt to put a swf file up but I don't think it'll support that.



I'm also in the process of doing the walk directions for Gretel. Here's some of the progress in Flash;



I've also decided to go for a bit of a style change concerning some of the characters. I've decided to exaggerate the proportions of the characters so they look more stylised than before, making the designs consistent throughout as Gretel was already exaggerated compared to the others.

I will upload examples of this soon
