Few more images for the game---







Lots of badly drawn images glossed up to look 10x better in Photoshop. The technique behind all this isn't exactly magic. I've used some Japanese comic books I have to appropriate the correct anatomical structure of the organics in each image (angles etc), also good shading, then I used the same blending transparency techniques used in 'The Insanity' games to get an even more realistic look to the texture and detail. I fill in the smaller bits myself; faces, cloth patterns, backgrounds. Ends up looking like I'm some wonderful artist but in reality I couldn't draw this half as well without having some ref comic strips to copy from lying in front of me at all times. Maybe it's the same with all artists, who knows? Not much different than people drawing themselves from the mirror I suppose. I estimate that at this stage we're probably about halfway done with Rebuild 2. I have to do some of the Zombie Attack animations, the ending scene art, and then who knows maybe the layout of the GUI or the main map. I've previewed the second version in it's alpha state and it's looking like a fine game- most of the complaints about the first game have been seen to, and hopefully with my art in it nobody'll be bitching about that either, unless comic gore isn't their thing?
If so one could argue why they'd want to play a zombie game in the first place anyway.

A shirt I love but don't have the guts to buy

Well, I'm going to bite the bullet and make a post. I promised myself I wouldn't post anything until I finished my book review, but that's taking longer than I want it to and I don't like going so long without posting anything. Since I don't really have anything prepared today, I'm going to show you guys this awesome shirt by a tip-top artist, Kate Beaton (go check out her site if you have a minute, her latest Spiderman comics are too funny).


If you'd like to purchase one of these gems for yourself, head here. I honestly would, but I'm too meek to go around offending everyone that looks at me. This shirt truly speaks to me, though, so it's a darn shame (I'm not a heartless monster, I swear).

I'll also share with you one of my all-time favorite comics by the lovely Ms. Beaton (props if you know what it's referencing!):


Ahhhh, that puts a smile on my face every time. But that's all for now, sorry! I'm going to get this review done if it kills me. I know you're all probably dying to know what I think about all the latest E3 news, but I think I've tweeted about it enough. Just click the link on the right sidebar to head over to my Twitter account and read all about it.
