Description
Happy Spyro day everyone!! It's out in the world officially!!I was blessed to be invited to redesign many of these characters alongside the amazing team at Toys For Bob. Working on Spyro was a real childhood dream come true! On the occasion of the release, I thought I’d bring back a handful of the concepts of mine that have been officially released- each character was its own unique challenge and hopefully in the end we’ve done right by the fans who have loved Spyro since his debut so many years ago!
I’ve gotta go get in my dragon onesie and fire this up- see y’all in the realms

The goat and bunny boo are totes adorbs.
The new Elora may come off somewhat as a different character than the OG Elora, but I think she's good enough to stay, if there was some way to have both of them that would be perfect.
You did a perfect job with the bunny no doubt. I hope they have you on board for the next Spyro game (I hope)
Spyro was my childhood defined and to have it continue from year of the dragon would honestly be fantastic.

They continued it with Enter The Dragonfly, A Hero's Tail, and Shadow Legacy, but it's not as good as the trilogy.
Enter The Dragonfly: Better graphics, but the story is too short.
A Hero's Tail: New characters, that's good, but Spyro is too arrogant.
Shadow Legacy: I think it's nice, but the game is just... See for yourself.
I hope they would remake those 3 and make them better.

They should remake Enter the Dragonfly, keep all the assets and the overall story it already had but add more to it, kinda like a remaster and a reboot of the game, adding more plot points, characters (Elora mostly) and maybe some of the playable characters from Year of the Dragon and after thats said and done they could either remake the rest with more to them, or all together just new spyro games that follow from the 4 games.
They could revive the spyro series and make it a huge success, and maybe even do the same for Crash as well, Remake Wrath of Cortex, and make the Crash Twinsanity that was originally was planned to be the game it was going to be if it wasn't rushed, they could even eventually have the two games cross over down the line. That would be Epic.

Nice idea!
I also thought of it too!
I really wanna see that scene from A Hero's Tail again:
Zoe: When I zap you like this *zap*, your current position and progress is saved. Also, you lose a million brain cells.
Spyro: Wow! A million brain cells? That sounds destructive!
Zoe: *zap*
Spyro: Ugh, that sounds kinda bad.
Zoe: *zap*
Spyro: Okay, okay! It's cool!

Anything clever and memorable like that should be added in the remakes, I agree.

I'm waiting for the Switch version. The new designs are amazing by the way.

Nice. You think you do the dragons from A Hero's Tail like Tomas and Red?

The fact that they took the help of an artist who were a fan of the games is absolutely fascinating to me. Great work!
Also, no offence to the other concept artists,, but your art style is probably my favourite in the in-game art gallery. Yes, I unlocked the art gallery for the first two games and are planning to unlock the third one when I finish it.

Lol! Ripto reminds me of Kaos from Skylanders Academy!

I don't get it. If it's the other way around, doesn't that mean they resemble each other?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I know that. I wasn't being too anal about which name to put first, to me it means they resemble each other.

Amazing job man, all of these are spectacular!
Question though: How come, out of all of the characters in Ripto's Rage, Elora doesn't have a spot in the unlockable Art Gallery?
....is it bad that I already have all three games platinum-ed and 120/100/175% complete as of Saturday?

I really think that it is so cool and awesome artwork picture in the whole world as always 💕.

I love the characters' styles and emotive, expressive faces!

Not quite buying the animals (the deer and the rabbit look a bit weird), but the dragons look solid; especially, Spyro.

I just have to say I love what you did to most of these classic characters!
Ripto especially is one of my favorites!
Professor and Hunter are a couple of the few I still need some getting used to, but other than that you and the team at Toys For Bob did magnificent job!
Congratulations and thank you!

Did you coincidentally have to work together?

Yaaaaas mine is coming in the mail! Thank you for helping to bring new life to what is probably the only decent dragon game out there to date!

I'm so envious that you got such an amazing job like this, but at the same time, I'm happy that you did.
Your style of character design and expression was just what this game needed, and you went above and beyond with the colouring and shading.
Outstanding work! Hope you get more jobs in the future, not that it would be hard for you to get another one anyway with this portfolio!

The redesign of all of them are just awesome!
Spyro, one of the first games I played on PS1 ( with Conker ).
I should get that trilogy, I beat the first ( the original ) but I never played the other games.

Holy crap, this was YOU?!?!?! The above characters are some of the absolute BEST redesigns in the whole game. Especially Spyro. His redesign is a 12/10. Nestor, Elora, Hunter and Bianca are standouts as well!

I absolutely ADORE your work in this game
Is there any plans for a concept art book for the trilogy? Because it would be amazing to have work from someone like yourself
inside a book with such amazing designs!

I never got the play the original games (and one time I did but it was a demo and something didn't work right so I had NO idea what was going on XD; ) but I was always sad I missed out on a game series about a DRAGON. Kind of super excited to try this new one, and I'm not trying to butter anyone up by saying the new art style was a big motivator! I LOVE games with an artistic aesthetic that's just plain pleasing to look at, and these characters look SO GREAT! Have fun playing, I'll probably have to wait until Christmas. XD
