read more »Art: Bombernauts Workshop Banner
Have you played Bombernauts? It's available on Steam and is a whole lot of fun. It's a great multiplayer game by Tyler Glaiel with art by Sven Ruthner and audio by Brandon McCartin.
For the most recent update – which adds Steam workshop support (full patch notes) – Tyler mentioned needing a hand with a banner quick, and I was in a good position to help out and was happy to help some friends in a bind.
I painted the banner based on some of the power ups in the game, below is the final banner we ended up with. The other Sven painted the robot part, and I merged it into this scene and did the rest. I had a lot of fun painting this!
Check the game out, and bring some friends since it's a good game in groups :D

Art: Drifter Merchant
A (wip) concept for Drifter. A merchant ship, that hangs around and is really big - even the tiny pixels on the loading bay, around the shuttle, are a bit big for human scale in comparison!
Don't forget, the game is available already - you can find out how and where to get it on the Drifter site.
Drifter 0.6.1 released
Relatively hot on the heels of 0.6.0, here is the second release in the Narcissus update series to Drifter.

So I have been working on these interiors for quite some time (basically forever) but they are finally coming together. Here's a render of the pilots quarters, a WIP.
Pilot Quarters
Remember you can get Drifter already directly from us and have hours of fun while we work on wrapping up the rest.

Part of the bigger update we have been busy working on for Drifter includes a couple of new playable ships. Some of them come from the same manufacturer, and some are cut down smuggling ships streamlined for speed. You can see a preview below, click to view the large version.
Art: Drifter interior update
I have been plodding along through concepting, building, and texturing a whole bunch of station interior scenes for Drifter, this space trading game we are making.
You can get the game immediately and play it, on Steam or directly from us.
I will posting breakdowns of the stages of an interior and all the things I have learned along the way, as this is the first time I have ever made anything this large scale and it was incredibly challenging at best. Lot's to learn from.
This is a sneak preview of some of the textures I have been making (click to enlarge):
To follow along, you can subsribe to this blog (top right of post), or follow me on twitter, or follow the lead dev Colin here.
