Description
My pride and joy, the Lutece twins! After finishing up my work for Elizabeth, Irrational hit me up to take a pass at these lovable rapscallions, the scientific minds behind the technology of Columbia. They play a surprisingly huge role in the game, so I've been really flattered to see how many fans they've accumulated over the past couple of months. Granted, let's be honest, most of that is probably because of the amazing writing in the game, but I'LL TAKE WHAT I CAN GET.I hope everyone realizes that these two are meant to look like they just walked straight out of Leyendecker illustrations,

I'm surprised to come across the artist behind many of the characters of Bioshock Infinite. I fell in love with these characters and the way they appeared in the game. Thank you for envisioning such beautiful art for us to experience.

Joining the chorus of amazing design. Especially how you managed to make the two look really off-putting compared to the rest of Columbia by just appearance alone.
So, great work!

I love, love, love the Lutece twins. Really amazing work! I'm developing a Rosalind cosplay, but no matter what I do I can't get the hair right. Is there a real world hairstyle that it's based on that I could work from?

Great work. I just finished the game and their exchanges were some of my favorite parts. Once you know their backstory some of the subtler parts of their design leap to the foreground. Faved.

Okay pardon the fangirlish moment but: ZOMG you designed the Lutece twins?! AHHHHH! They became my favorite characters of the game. You did just a such fantastic job in their design, they look so amazing. And their almost disinterested/secret cat-like intrigued expressions are the best.
I always find it really cool to find the artists who design the games I play or movies I watch. I love it.

"these two are meant to look like they just walked straight out of Leyendecker illustrations"
Yep, you nailed that.
One thing you also nailed is how to make them distinctive enough to be remembered from the start of the game, and yet not too weird, out-of-place or in-your-face.
I don't know why, but Lutece's face really stuck with me. That plus the great voice acting made her quite a striking character.

These two were my favourite characters in the game.
They appeared an appropriate amount of times for me to be both satisfied, and wanting more!
I love how their designs were unique amongst the colombians, but they didn't stick out like a sore thumb either. They are amazing, and so are you for designing them!

seeing some nice renderings of these two make me eager to see what folks do for cosplay for them.

They are beautiful characters. I've never seen such good characters in a videogame, I loved them, from the design, to the personality. Everything was marveleous.

These two were my least favorite characters by the end of the game. Not to say they were poorly designed (art or story wise), but without spoilers, I'll just say I hated what they did when I realized what they'd done.

Except that Robert was the one with the conscience who brought back Booker in the first place to save Elizabeth, so they're kinda redeemed.

flaagan In reply to shoomlah [2013-04-12 02:42:58 +0000 UTC]
I dunno, their attitude the whole time reeked of "guess we better clean our mess up", like having to deal with Booker and Elizabeth was some kind of penance they had to pay to get what they wanted. I think it was the tone of the voice actors who played them that conveyed that to me, it seemed almost as snobbish at times as the 'white upper crust' populace of Columbia.
That being said, regardless as to how I read them, I still think they were incredibly well written characters with a definitive style all their own in the BI universe.
Also, and maybe this was just me, but how close they were was a liiiittle creepy at times, especially considering that they're not only 'siblings', but technically male and female versions of the same person (assuming I got that part of the story right).

"Robert Lutece: Dead is dead. *holds up a coin*
Rosalind Lutece: I see heads.
Robert: and I see tails.
Rosalind: Its all a matter of perspective.
Robert: what do you see here, from this angle?
Rosalind: Dead. and that angle?
Robert: Alive...The same coin
Rosalind: A different perspective.
Robert: Heads
Rosalind: Tails
Robert: Dead
Rosalind: Alive"
I loved them and the design was perfect

what little I have seen of the game so far these two characters really are brilliant and bring a smile to my face ^_^ I thought their facial expressions are very hard to read...which makes them all the more intriguing >.> you cant tell whether that look is a snide, cynical or sincere glance....which makes the characters even more strange and awesaome ^_^

I'm playing the game this days, and the twins are the most awesome secondary characters I've ever see in a videogame. Really, since the very first moment I though "oh cool, this two are so cool and they look tooootally like Leyendecker" (I've saw the resemblance instantly cause I'm a big Leyendecker fan). Now I see that you are the designer and I'm freaking out and become more (if possible) fan of you. Trust me, this two are directly to the video game history of great characters, be proud of it.

I actually love and adore the second suggestion for Rosalind, it almost makes her look like a more casual character! I also love the portraits of her at the bottom
