BGP: Week Seven

Much last last week I continued working on my assigned illustrations. It is slowly going forward, perhaps to slow. This weeks focus has been to get the illustrations to a finished level. At this point it is important that every card has an illustration even if it is not good enough. Better to have something than nothing I suppose.

This week I managed to complete all the resource cards, which is good. I think they will suffice, the important part in this case is that they are clear in what they stand for and are easy to read. I tried to add a bit of neon light to them just to connect them to the general theme of the game.

BGP: Week Six

The game is taking shape and it is starting to look more complete. It is going fairly slow but I think we are not that far behind. To compensate this though, we had to look for other artists to complete some of illustrations that would otherwise not get finished.

My personal efforts to contribute to the project is still not going as desired. Though there is an improvement in progression from before. I have managed to get almost all of my cards to a near finished state. For now I thing it is a good approach to see that all the cards at least have something before I start finishing them. This way a can oversea any larger setbacks and more easily control a unified rendering quality.

BGP: Week Five

This week have been really slow on my part, before I was frustrated with where the overall development were going and much focus went on trying to puzzle all that together. When we finally had enough groundwork done to put all graphical attention on drawing illustrations for the cards I was excited, this was what seemed appealing when I signed up to this project. Now, unfortunately things haven't gone as I want and I am getting behind on my work, it is not that I am not putting in enough time quite the opposite. The problem routes down to my own expectations on myself. They are far to high and I know that, still I seem unable to get over it. I feel bad for holding the project back.

So far I've tried my luck on five different card illustrations with only one making it to finish and even that one is getting a remake. Frustration and stress is not helping and with a episode of food poisoning my energy level is not at its highest. Apart from all this i did manage to create a first draft for our logo this week.
