Space Bastard Kick-off Art

Now that the art for Part 1: PopGun is all but published, I took some time out to create a few jump-start art to get the wheels turning for Jack’s journey in the coming chapters. It should be no surprise that with a title like Space Bastard, Our bastard will indeed find his way into outer-space. Here’s the first of a few jump-start drawings leading up to the second chapter of Space Bastard. Space Bastard - Kick-off Line ArtI’ve always been a fan of how artists like Paul Pope, Mike Mignola and Victor Moscoso. I wanted to do something with a limited palette. The colors were quick. what Joe refers to as scratch drawings from many of our childhoods, but I refer to as (it’s 3 am, I want to have some fun) what can I do with stock gradients in CS3.

November 8th, 2010 :: Joseph Krzemienski

Now things are starting to take shape. We have some train car assets popped in. Next we need to vary the train car styles and color and also ad some more dimension to the otherwise flat props. And of course, we’ll need to pop Helsingard into the background as he chases Robo and rips up the virtual set.

November 2nd, 2010 :: Joseph Krzemienski

The chase scene from the film is proving to be one of the most complicated things we’re doing. The shot requires 2D animation 2.5D landscapes, 3D modeling and animation, and compositing. Above is the shot in its earliest incarnation. I’ll be updating more progress soon!
