Ooh, I wonder if he gets to work on Star Control.

 

[Roguey]

looks like Sawyer got a tattoo as well. From his twitter. http://i.imgur.com/jcsAmkU.jpg

That guy has a large amount of facial hair, not him. Ya'll got trolled.

 

[Hormalakh]

roguey is the one person who'd definely know what sawyer looks like from front and back. if zhe says so, it must be true.

 

[Athelas]

I dunno, I think Sawyer has at least some standards.

I dunno, I think google reverse image search makes it pretty conclusive.

 

[Hormalakh]

i mean it does look like one of his development beards.

 

[Xor]

Could roguey be losing his touch?

 

[Akratus]

when feargus doesn't know an answer, he rambles.

Remind you of anyone?

 

[Haba]

Denial.

ME! ME! IT REMINDS ME OF ME!!!

Someone should interview her about working on PE sometime. Would be interesting to know what it was like to come in halfway on the Project as a writer.

And Dura/C2B webstagram is good for viewing instagram pics.

Also one with Liam Esler. Though I'm not 100% sure he works on Eternity. Would fit though.

 

[Hormalakh]

Tried to send Carrie Patel an email - hopefully she'll respond. Made a guess on her email, because I can't find it (anyone have it?) If she does, I'll make a thread so people can ask some questions that we can have her respond to.

 

[Duraframe300]

Ah, yes Liam IS working on Pillars. He was the guy who got the FilmVictoria Fellowship.

BTW how was BGII:EE's extra content? He was Lead Scripter/Writer on that.

 

[Hormalakh]

Got an interview with narrative designer, Carrie Patel. Ask your questions here.

Makes a lot of sense considering his history. I haven't played the BG2:EE but I've heard the NPCs were awful. Perhaps not a good sign? I don't know. He will however have proper supervision and management

He's from Australia too. So they must have REALLY liked him.

Obsidian has another new Concept Artist

http://www.williamnichols.portfoliobox.me/

Now we have 3 ex-Lucasfilm concept artists that worked on Clone Wars.

Funny coincidence

UNRELEASED:

KINECT ADS - STORYBOARD ARTIST - MICROSFT ADVERTISING - 2009

FANTASY FLIGHT GAMES, FORZA GAME STUDIO, RUN STUDIOS, PRIMATE GAMES, MOONSHOT, HAIRBRANED SCHEMES - CONCEPT ARTIST - 2006 – 2010

This can't be the same company though, as that one was founded in 2011 last I checked. Or can it? He did live in Seattle before......

He has lots of typos in it in general.

Edit: Also checking around there seemingly are no companies that are named such.

But who monitors you, Duraframe300?

Good, Clone Wars was awesome, especially towards the end. Not that has anything to do with anything

I think artists should be challenged in drawing womyn who aren't sexy. Every single one in the concept art is sexy. Where are the plain looking or even fat girls? We've got 50 kinds of guys in the concept, but only 1 type of girl.

Concept artists should be creative and help think of varieties of ways that an idea can be visualized, not making clones of the same old thing over and over...
