Mirador: Character, Prop, & Environment Designs (Patreon)

I've had SUCH a blast freelancing, and I wanted to share some of the work I created for the awesome upcoming game, Mirador! Sauropod Studio was so fun to work with, and I hope the game really takes off on launch. (This isn't a sponsored post, I swear... I'm just hyped and I want to show what some of my freelance work looks like!)

We first worked on polishing the rough character designs for two of the main player characters. They're so cute!

The final designs:

Some of the visual development for the dog:

And some of the development for the bird:

I was having so much fun with the bird character that I did a quick doodle with one of the color variations that didn't end  up bring the primary choice in the final design ^_^

Burb frend!!

I also helped to design some props for these characters- I absolutely love designing props because you can play with shapes so much.

The last piece we collaborated on was a paintover of an environment screenshot. Paintovers take up a lot of my work across my various contracts- to design armor for characters, to figure out materiality and texture styles, etc. I really enjoy these because they set up the structure and I get to just play with the details!

I first explored two different biomes- one green and lush, the other cold and windy.

And then here is the final image, which is used to inform the modelers as well as for marketing purposes :D

Thanks for checking it out! You can also wishlist the game on Steam to stay updated with it's development. I wish the Sauropod team the best of luck with their project!
