AgentC- backgrounds and icons design

at the late 2011 I designed some backgrounds and icons for a mobile game for Adhi.
back then I didn't know the title yet, but more or less I was told that it was going to be some type of pet game.
Few days ago, I e-mailed Adhi and found out that the game is already published (many times ago).  You can download the game here.
though before this project, I have spent my last 4 years designing game assets, I rarely got task to design game background.  and just look at my animations, I rarely put any backgrounds on it.  so I found this job challenging yet fun to do.  Cause, I never thought I could do background designs before.




This is one of my favorite cause I love the purple-ish sky, and the balcony.

Rejected design: a chef animated gif

I'm crazy about contest, that's not a secret. I  lost so many times, so I no longer cry everytime lost.
this one is exception, I wasn't sad, I was furious!
this gif were made for a design contest, they asked for an animated gif of a chef "baking up a new site".  the contest holder change the brief multiple times.
up to this day,  I still can't get it why I was lost since the winning animation is fugly. it's my very honest and objective opinion.
I made this animation using inkscape and photoshop.

Rejected design: a cat illustration

Again, from the archive, an unpublished design.
rejected design, it was an illustration for a birthday party.
no.. it's not my birthday, read it carefully, it's 20-10-2012, not 20-12-2012 :)
tho it is rejected I kinda proud of this illustration, since I'm not a big fans of feline.



From the Archive: Game Design

while I wasn't actively design many things at the past few years, I actually have some artwork that I haven't share.  Like this one.  I made this at 2011 as a test to be a game artist in a game studio. The test was to design a background for fighting game and one character design.


as you can guess, I was inspired by Venetia, and the masked hero is of course based on Venetian masquerade party.  Believe me or not it was the first time I draw a full background from scratch.  I love the moon. (fyi, I passed the test, but foolish me became to greedy).

Below, is another test for another game studio.  The test was to make a character design.  the studio didn't even reply my e-mail T-T.  No hard feelings, anyway.


by the way, I also made some icons and background for a real game, but since I haven't ask permission to publish it here I can't share it yet.
Oh, if you have any game project and need to design some game asset, do not hesitate to contact me ;)
