Description This is one of the loadingscreens that I made for Crusader Kings 2 while doing my internship at Paradox Interactive.

The image belongs to Paradox Interactive, and I have their permission to show it here.

Here I wanted to draw a bunch of plague-infected walking through a town.

Don't mind the warped perspective or the unnatural light. Move along.

When I first saw the loading screen it looked like the pilgrims were wearing masks. In any case, it's a good drawing - really captures that dreary medieval town feeling.

You made some nice screens for these guys. Cool lighting and grim atmospheres. I like the layouts.

I have no idea at all. To be honest, I didn't even get past the tutorial in CK2. It's too complex of a game for me.

It's one of those games where you have to fail a lot until you start to get a bit good at it.

True, but I feel I can't even play it correctly. There's too much to take in at once, somehow. I'm too dumb for it

I finally found the artist! Good sir, before I start on the painting itself I just want to say that your art is awesome and adds a great deal to the atmosphere of Crusader Kings II. Thank you for enhancing the game!


It's very interesting to see this piece in its full size. there's a lot of details that I haven't noticed before, like the hounds and the figures in the background. Fantastic work!

I love your artwork for Crusader Kings 2, it's all so very dream like and bleak at the same time. You added alot to the game me for setting the tone of the game. Good work!

This is a pretty nice composition. I like how you fogged in the people in the background so you can tell they're human, but there's no real detail there. Great job with color in perspective.
I think what you're lacking though, is a real eye catcher. I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to be focusing on the guy in the front, and probably on the cross specifically, but it's lacking a real "omfg" factor, you know what I mean?

zenarion In reply to Callesw [2012-06-06 20:48:57 +0000 UTC]

Just precis.
Tills vidare finns inget att se, men efter 15e ska jag kunna visa upp lite faktiskt.
Gick ju och pitchade iden till Paradox innan jag slutade, den gillades, och nu bygger jag prototyper.
