Description Here are some more discarded animals I did for a project at work. Some of these have been left in and redesigned a bit, but I cant say which ones. Most of these were liked, but the higher ups decided to go with a different approach to the project, so I had to scrap most of these little guys to make room for the new stuff. You can see a few of the ones I had to redesign, and there's a few more redesigns where those came from, but I cant post those, as they're being used.

Perhaps at some point I can post the actual project, but I dont know, they're awefully paranoid about people stealin' shit, especially since our 'industry' is so competitive..blah blah blah. Those of you who work in graphic design and related fields, y'all know what I mean...

100% Illustrator, tho I did compile this in Pshop and fuzz the pretty-but-also-scrapped background, to help the animals stand out some more. All original art is vector though.

God, this project has so much discarded artwork it's not even funny...

I like the lemur,the toucans and the little chameleon! Colourful awesomeness. And I know exactly how you feel about getting hard work discarded - just had a whole flash web discarded because the client decided that they were going for a different look! O, and ditto on the paranoia too. I am only starting out, but it feels as if there is a thief around every corner

It's missing the "cute snake" though... Which is prone to give nightmares.

Hmm, I dont think so. I'd be interested in some cool wide work tho, for a small fee. I realize not everyone can afford freelance rates, especially if they are an individual. I should ask about the animals, see if they would care about using the discarded ones.

Thank you ^_^.

Im sorry, but the image is copyrighted for use at my job, so I cannot allow you to use that exact image. I can try and make you one similar to it if you like.

These are beautiful! And strangely, the look like things that I have to work on for my job. Even your description of them sounds something like what I do...how mysterious...

Wooooh, your job does sound remarkably similar to mine! Sweet! It's so fabulous to meet someone who uses vectors the same way I do ^_^ Your work rocks, I must watch you. The project these animals was for is about to be released, so Im hoping I can submit samples from the final. Dam. The thing has been in dev for about 2 yrs now. 9_9;

Hm, maybe we should play 20 questions about what we do. I'll go first. Does it involve gambling?

I'm gonna feel real silly if I'm way off on my guess.

Oh wow, if these are the discarded, the graphic design industry you in must be at a whole nother level. Wow, these looks amazing. How do u come up with all this? You just open illustrator and start pen tooling or something? The colors are so vivid and superb.

Oh, it's not that they werent any good or werent liked, the project just took different directions. I did most of these in sketch for first, always a good idea, then did them in Illustrator. I looked at a few references, but that's about it ^_^

bassanimation In reply to Aludra [2005-01-11 22:43:12 +0000 UTC]

Being a character designer takes mucho dedication. Its very difficult to break into that. I had wanted to do that for some time as well, but I cant even begin to muster the badazzery it would take, at least for the places I wanted to work at . I do wish you luck though, work hard and make connections every chance you get! Practice makes perfect! I have a friend who's a tester, and she's always liked it ok, just depends on where you work. She's at NCSoft right now, I cant remember what they're working on though 9_9;

X3 Thanks for the info. I practice whenever there's a piece of paper around, whether its on homework or not...so practicing is no problem. Its just thinking of characters that'll be my problem...
