Level Design and Digital Painting

After finishing my vehicle last week, Its time to move onto on a project which is level design. I have to say I'm really excited to start this project. I want my level to be about an old abandoned house that has been boarded up for a couple of years.
In the level you will play as a teenager who want to check out the house to see what's inside but sadly for him this is the last thing he wants to do due to what he finds inside.

Inside the house It looks really battered with everything inside messed up and damaged. The windows are boarded up but light leaks ins.
Once the teenager visits the master bedroom he will find blood all over the bed with a trail going into a small room in the master room, the problem is the player wont have access to this room.
The whole object to this level is to find clues on what happened in this house. the player will have to find notes, weapons and other clues to have a better idea on what went on in this house.

The garden to the house will have a creepy feeling to it with weird looking ornaments and overgrown plants.
The player will start in the garden and then they will head into the house.








This week I have also started a digital painting class. In this class we will learn different skills in Photoshop. Using these skills will help me improve my skills in my concept work and as an artists.
This is the picture that I am working on at the moment. This picture is going toward my character development, Instead of going for a Bandos look I'm going to try out some different ideas. I'm really happy on the way this one is turning out, I'll keep you updated on this drawing in the following weeks.


Well that's everything for now.
