Fishing with Frank , ( seriously?!? Who is frank??) (WIP)

So our first thing we had to do on this team project was make a fish with a color pallet and this is what i came up with (Bellow)

even tho my art style didn't win or it didn't get even noticed AT ALL , i used this color pallet (Seen Bellow) and I WON THAT BATTLE!!!

So our fearless leader decided to make us do even more fish but with a Cartoonish look (Thanks Matt...) so this is what i based off (PIC 1) , and this is what i came up with (PIC 2) .

OK! , Week 2 the FWF Crew and I got the the Hook UP! , no seriously i got the hooks

So More Hooks To come and the background! , in WEEK 3!!

So as Promised i did the Background for Depth 1 and here are the steps i did for them :

so first i did a basic blue using the pallet (pic 1) ,then i added the left and right side of the silhouette (PIC 2&3) the the same for the reef grass (PIC 3&4) , so i added the pillar (pic 6) , then matt wanted to add his flare on the end (PIC 7)

So Another Background and more art! , so i started off with a blank color , then added the seaweed , then that lead to the first & second pillar and the silhouette , and finally the statue.

Now we had to work on the mascot and i asked matt to collaborate with me and this what we came up.

for our first collab it turned out AMAZING!! , looking forward to working with him more !

So this week worked on the starting floor and this was super cool! , so i started to make different different color shades of blue of the circle to make the Snails windows

then i added lines to make more water like.

So from there i threw what i did in pixler editor and made the back ground have a more water feel .

So by suggestion from nik (team member) and matt's dilly dally i added Crepuscular rays/Costic Rays /God Rays.

EXAMPLE:

So i tried to mimic the rays and it turned out pretty cool

so after the final product i just decided to update the 2nd depth with more art it's a work in progress.

So on this week i added more to the background and made it darker and added some back ground animals:

So with a little Pixlr editor magic and tinkering with Matt and Neil we now have the FINAL Back Ground:

This week another back ground when i thought i was 100% done nik wanted 2 more , but im not completely finished so it's.....

Now i finally finished one of the 2 backgrounds and IT WAS TIRING !!! so here's the result

EXAMPLE:

MY TWIST ON THE EXAMPLE:

now im working on adding rocks to the other background which is based off a volcano

i used pictures of mountain's and fused them together.

this is the current result (below):

Now here is the final background for fishing with frank, it was a wonderful experience with a wonderful team, I would like to thank them for all the hard work they contributed to make this game come together especially our instructor matt for putting up late nights to polish this game!
