This actually looks 50 times more disturbing than it did in the game. >.< They made the lungs glow, pretty much screaming "shoot me here for an easy win!"

I wish they would've kept things like this into the game release instead of making things more hand-holding and less freaky.

I can see why some things were left unfinished, but I don't understand why things were changed like that for the final release.

I don't understand it either. I wasn't there at the end.

This character design is way better than the one they used in the game... Would have LOVED to see this guy.

Hedrus In reply to Falcofan22 [2009-06-13 06:08:50 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! The only major thing they changed after I left the project that I saw was the textures and materials. I'm not sure why they went the route they did but I am very happy you like mine better!

What sort of insperation or ideas came into your head to design the characters you did?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Hedrus In reply to Falcofan22 [2009-06-13 21:20:21 +0000 UTC]

I like doing word associations. Basically a designer would talk about what he wanted a character to do gameplay wise and then we sat down and came up with words that fit what that character should feel like. Then from there I used previous Silent Hills as inspiration. From there its just sketching until something clicks. It can be different depending on the character and project.

Sounds like fun!
How many rough sketches do you think you did?

Hedrus In reply to Falcofan22 [2009-06-15 01:15:58 +0000 UTC]

We did a bunch of rough sketches. For each character I did probably around 3-5 rough sketches first. Then finished the one people liked most.

I was the lead character artist. I did both 2D concept artwork for the game as well as 3D character models.

He's the only creature I don't fight...LOL...

Anyway I always loved the concept of the meanies in the game and this new addiction to the whole spectrum of 'animals' was a great one.

Your 'rendering' is amazing...

(I hate this monster though...hate him with a passion...when I see his little smoke coming up I'm running home for momma...which isn't a very good idea either...)

existingdark In reply to Aadira [2010-08-11 14:00:56 +0000 UTC]

you'd have had to fight at least one, I remember a friend trying to skip him during the first part where you put the wires together and ending up getting attacked by the smog in the process.

i like the 2nd view with him in shadow, and his lungs look like smoldering embers. really cool effect. it looks like he is breathing in, making the fire brighter, like when you blow on the embers of a dying fire. i hope that makes sense. lol

That is exactly what we were trying to do with Smog. I'm glad it worked! And that you liked it!

So they changed Smog's texture too... Sorry but in this case I think it was right decision - your version is too bright. But wait! WTF!!! They changed Elle's head & Feral's texture too and in VERY BAD way!!!
Why they are spoiling other's work?!!!

Hedrus In reply to yoklmn [2009-01-06 01:41:03 +0000 UTC]

Well, the only thing in my defense of Smog is that the lights and fog made even colorful texturing in game look gray. I made smog colorful combat that and also because he is supposed to be on fire inside his body. Like a burning flame in the dark. As far as the other characters I really was disappointed with what they ended up with. I wouldn't have minded if they had made smogs color more desaturated but they made it a blueish purpley color which I do not like the look of at all. Oh well. At least I have my renders of the way I thought it should look.
