Work for the showreel

During last 2 weeks I was preparing dissertation and building portfolio website for the end of the year show as I will need to have something online for job hunting as well as business cards. It has been ages since I have done any web development so I took an easy option which took about 4 days to develop; including finding my old work and either taking pictures or scanning. Here is the link to my website www.jurgitarainyteart.me . It is not great but it is better then nothing at all and I will improve it as the time goes by and I have some free time.

I have also created a sketch of the first layer of forest for the land game level (see image below)

Environment: forest area sketch

As I have continued working on the Dissertation I was slowly moving along with the art for the showreel. I have more or less completed the whole environment for the land level. I made some minor changes. One of them is the clouds. I've redrawn them with a pencil brush so the clouds have more 'texture' and stand out better from the sky background.

Environment: forest area

New texture for the clouds.

I have also redesigned the game character Lyse. First version only painterly look and the second one added some white patches on its body. Hopefully to remind somewhat of a moon or stars, as it supposed to be living in the sky.

Lyse: version 1

Lyse: version 2

On Monday I will be submitting a video of the environment and a character walking which I still have to finish it off.
