Portbanks- Stevies Neighborhood

Concept Art for "Skyjackers- 40,000 Fathoms High"

It's the neighborhood of the maincharacter Stevie.
In the middle you can see the tank which he disabled to built his home in which you may remember I posted a few months ago.

Madame Daturas Voodoo Shack

Here are 3 ideas for the voodoo shack of Madame Datura, a character from my Skyjackers project.
The descriptions are not done yet, but I wanted to finally post them... at least on this blog. When Alex is back from his vacation I'll post the concepts with their descriptions on the skyjackersblog , too, along with the character who belongs in these places.

...and the last batch of pirates

Since the game is out for some time now, I guess it's ok to show you more ingame artwork.
Everything's more than 1 year old I believe.

NPC portraits:

Gamemenue background, which is nicely animated in game:


And the digital cover for the DLC: 

And 5 shots of the cutscenes I made. These have been animated too. The images with the panorama format have been scrolled from one side to another to fake a camera pan:

  
 

I made way more art for that game, but most of that was concept-art, UI, icons and such things, which wasn't that much of an eyecandy, in my opinion.

Steam Noir- Das Kupferherz

I just finished the secound book (but my first) of Steam Noir with Felix Mertikat! To celebrate that I want to share the fanart which will be showcased at the end of the book with more fanart from other comicbook artists.


Felix is the author and did all the lines for the book, I did the colors and was in the end supported by Felix.
Check it out, if you haven't yet! Steam Noir 2 will be available soon.

Shadowrun Online

As always it get's quite quiet around here, when I'm busy with commissions, but today the Shadowrun Online website went online so I can show you something I did for it a couple of months ago.


It's a bit dimmed for the sake of readability of UI and website elements.

I hope I can show you new things soon. Unfortunately it won't be anything related to Skyjackers. Absolutely no time at all to work on that.

Skyjackers

Long time no post... but I'll try to compensate that with this big announcement:

I just launched the blog of my personal project "Skyjackers" which is a collaboration with my fellow Alexander Berger. I will update the blog constantly with finished artworks I already have in my drawer and artworks I will try to finish in the meantime. I hope you are as excited as I am!

And this blog here will have some background informations about the art process and I will also show rejected designs I made in the research and development phase.

But this post ist only an announcement, more to come soon!
