Background Artist and Illustrator

Cyanide and Happiness: Freakpocalypse

Explosm

I directed, designed, and painted a majority of the background art in Explosm’s point and click adventure game, Cyanide and Happiness: Freakpocalypse.

These are a few examples of my workflow: from rough sketches, to polished line work; and from rough colors to final paints.
