Description
Here's a quick concept piece I did for the recently release Skylanders game on 3DS. This was to figure out what the level looks like between the opening cinimatic, and the first time you take control of your Skylander.The team here worked insanely hard on this, and they have something to be really proud of. Check it out!
More updates to follow!
(Activision owns this, so don't be silly)

Nice! This looks excellent. I really like those swirly lines that you put into the grass. The colors in this are amazing too.

haha. I haven't really tried digitally painting in that way yet. I always do things in blocks of colors without blending. I've been curious to give it a try though.

There is so much movement in a STATIONARY landscape! So good!
Very much reminds me of the Milkman level from Psychonauts~

The other versions can't even hold an UNLIT candle to the 3DS version. ^^ That looks amazing, good job.

i don't know if i'm allowed to have an official opinion on the matter. but thanks! that means a lot.

Haha, yeah... It reminds me of the older Crash and Spyro. (I'm not a purist but the newer ones, while good in their own way can't compare hahah!)
Do you have a leaderboard for times or anything? Even an unofficial one? I have a few really great times. My Lava Flow Grotto record is 06:09 and I got 06:08 again few days ago.

I think it looks great! Someday I'm hoping to be a concept artist/cartoonist for a videogame.

I could ask if you guys ever got any hate mail for changing Spyro's look, but chances are you havent since most fanboys of the original PS1 games dont really do anything about their hatred .-.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ha! yeah, we had nothing to do with that. although, it's pretty apparent by reading any forums. (i'm not a huge fan of the design either)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Damn .3.
Although I did hear that Spyro was just put in here for this game to sell. And you know what? It succeeded o-o I also hear that he might get his own game with a completely different look o3o So who knows

i think they were originally going to make a strictly spyro game, and it just kind of evolved into what it is today. it seems to have worked out well.

I'm just still shocked that there was no protest at any game store against skylanders .-.

Skylanders looks like an amazing game. I'll get a copy of this 3DS version. I can't wait to play this level! Love your work Jeff!

thanks so much as always. glad you like it. i didn't get to work on the project very long, but it was a ton of fun to work on that pic.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Is there a place where I can find a list of the projects you worked on?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
my resume i guess? lol
most of the games i've worked on have been quite brief. A couple characters here, some environment there, nothing to really celebrate. I've currently spent the most time on Our House: Party, for the wii. But the project I'm working on now doesn't ship till 2013. So I've got a huge backlog of stuff I can't wait to share.
Guitar Hero World Tour (ps2)
Guitar Hero 5 (ps2)
Band Hero (ps2)
Our House: Party (wii)
Top Shot Arcade (wii)
Skylanders Spyro's Adventure (3DS)
thanks for asking, and all the comments. i know i'm bad at responding, but they do mean a lot. thanks!
hope all is well in your art world. lets see some more deviations! ;D

That's a very cool list! Too bad Our House hasn't been released in Europe.
I can't wait to see the final product you're actually working on.
No problem at all with the replies, I might be worse at it...
And yes, everything's good in the art world, most of my actual clients are from the medical advertising field and I'm working a lot at this time of the year.
I'm being commissioned to work on all kind of medias, like sketches, vectors, 3D sculptures and animations.
When I'll be experienced enough, I'll join you in the game industry!

ha! you're not missing out on much with Our House. game sucked, but it was fun to work on. lol. i'm kind of surprised it was never release in Europe, because I know we made multiple language versions of the game. Silly publishers, they always want you to hurry up and make things, even when they don't know what they're going to do with it.
that sounds like quite the range of skills, no wonder your busy. just hope it doesn't keep you from having fun making stuff for your self.
best of luck!

I kind of want to run through it, even though falling down at the wrong time would mean certain death.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ha! yeah, gravity in a place like this is a little off. i'd like to think you might just swing back around to fall back on top.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That would be really helpful.

Awesome!! Activision will soon own the planet watch out people LOL
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ha! yeah, i get that feeling sometimes as well. i guess being owned by the people that own everything can't be that bad eh?

I want to run through that! Great to see what yer up to Mr. B.

heh, thanks Mr G! i really wish you could see the crap i can't show off.
