New to the Team

Winter break is over and it’s time to start updating the blog again. There was some major progress on Aurora’s Nightmare over the past few weeks (though, as always, not quite as much as I hoped) and I’m planning on doing a big project status post sometime in the near future.

Today though, I wanted to introduce a new team member, who I have to thank for much of that recent progress. Katja Swann is one of my students, who is studying game art and design. I recruited her to help finish the remaining character shading, which had been sitting on the to-do list for way too long, and she did a great job. If you’re curious, you can check out some of her original art at http://singingrabbitskull.tumblr.com/tagged/my_art
