Phrenk - the first 8

Here's a preview of one of the characters I've been working on - Phrenk the troll alchemist - from Slugfest Games' Red Dragon Inn 3, the newest installment of that game due out this Spring/Summer. (click to see it biggie sized)

Trolling - part 2

So here's the troll Phrenk in his final revised version. Blue, not green and laden with various potions to prey upon unsuspecting imbibers.

Trolling

So one of the first things I've been working on this year is a new character for Slugfest Games' Red Dragon Inn 3. His name is Phrenk, a troll alchemist. These are the first two waves of roughs, the first being quick pencil roughs to wrap my head around the character, the second being a tighter concept based on the art director's suggestions (basically B with D's nose) and a little color to show the AD what I was thinking as far as color-scheme. Originally being green in my rough, Phrenk is now a light blue. Stay tuned for more.

Red Dragon Inn 2 cover

Yee haw! It's done. This one took WAY longer than I had anticipated but overall I'm pleased with the way it came out. It's a great game and I'm looking forward to trying out the new characters.
I've included images with and without the type. I made a conscious effort not to go crazy with the background details which just got covered up with the type elements like I did with the first cover but I did have fun with the background characters nonetheless. Notably the dwarf slayer guy with tattoos and green mohawk in the middle.

Red Dragon Inn 2 part 1

Well this isn't actually "part 1" as there have been some initial roughs and thumbnails but this is the initial approved line-work and a preview of the color work of the characters for Red Dragon 2, the sequel to the hit game of the same name.
