I havent had a lot of free time this week, work has been very busy, but I did get to work a little on some my Resource Art for Taipan.
I am not to happy with the Gun Powder Barrel. I lost track of what I was doing and ended up with something more detailed and less cartoony than I was originally going for. You can see how the Rock and the Gold Coins are limited to about 4-6 colors, but the Barrel uses lots of blended colors, stippled shading, etc. The only part I did correctly was the Black Powder at the top of the barrel. I will go back and redo it when I have the time.
On a side note, and completely unrelated to my game, my friend Bryan just took a bulk order of games from all of our friends to get them at a discounted price. I put in a request and have these games on the way:
I am very excited to try Mansions of Madness but, if I had half a brain, I should have also got Merchants and Marauders. Seeing that I am working on a similar type of game, having that on hand as reference might have been a good idea. Oh well, maybe for Christmas. =)
