More pictures taken on the road recently, as I left the art desk and computer behind for a little site scouting. I've been working on the ideas around the battlebacks for The New World Saga. Essentially, the backgrounds and foregrounds that are used for every battle in the game. Originally, I was debating on simply … Continue reading Site Scouting for Battlebacks – Part Two

From the Sketchbook – Loads and Loads of Enemies
In the interest of getting caught up with all of the characters drawn so far, I've decided to share every sketch I have that hasn't seen an article made for it. An official launch for this website is coming soon and I would like to share as much of what's in the works for The … Continue reading From the Sketchbook – Loads and Loads of Enemies
Completed Project – Swamp Crawler Sprite
Another day, another period of sprite work. Today, I tackled another early game monster to create a sprite for. Swamp Crawler is the first boss of the game, who will eventually become a regular enemy encounter as the game goes on. As I've mentioned an earlier posts, he's basically a big frog. At the same … Continue reading Completed Project – Swamp Crawler Sprite
Completed Enemy – The Cadaver and Sprites
Today, I started on a storyline enemy that will appear towards the end of the opening section of the game, a Cadaver. The Cadaver is basically a re-coloring of The Creep enemy, but at the same time, its not. As an undead enemy, the cadaver will function completely differently than a Creep normally would. It … Continue reading Completed Enemy – The Cadaver and Sprites
Completed Enemy – Spider Demon
The Spider Demon is another one of our early game boss monsters, meant to be a boss for a side quest very early on in the game. You'll encounter this monster in the outskirts of Drumbo to the west side of town. He's one of the bosses hidden in the Get Lost Woods. I had … Continue reading Completed Enemy – Spider Demon

Here's the latest from the sketchbook for the game. I picked up some new art books recently, so some of these creatures are based on trying out some new ideas from that. I'm also working to begin filling out some of the monsters that appear beyond the first section of the game. At this point, … Continue reading Today’s Sketches – Moving Beyond Chapter One

Completed Enemy – Howler
The Howler was one of the earlier monsters that I drew for The New World Saga and surprisingly one of the tougher ones to nail down the visuals for. First off, I will admit that the creature looks a little janky. To be honest, I was going for that with making it. The Howler is … Continue reading Completed Enemy – Howler
Completed Enemy – Creep
The Creep is another of the early enemies that you meet in the game and another monster I wanted to get just right. When I first sketched this monster, I was surprised by some of the early reactions I was getting to it. Quite a few people I showed it to thought it was cute! … Continue reading Completed Enemy – Creep
Completed Enemy – Swamp Crawler
The Swamp Crawler is one of the first enemies that you meet in the game and I knew I wanted to get this one right. I had sketched him out a couple of months ago, based on a monster I saw from a cartoon in the 1980s. From there, it was just a matter of … Continue reading Completed Enemy – Swamp Crawler
