Update

We've been planning on coming out after the holidays, so many "real games" coming out. I'll have more time to do the 100+ drawings for the cutscenes in the meantime. So far so good, just have to keep going and checking off my todo list boxes!

Here's the 1979 Atari cutscene. 12 year old Oliver skipping school and getting his game :3

I've been looking at SO many old house photos...... Apparently "Avacado Green" was a popular appliance color. Also green carpet. Gotta love yellow linoleum. And dark brown wood was popular in the early 70's but got lighter towards the late 70's.....

This site was a life saver for 60's and 70's homes: http://uglyhousephotos.com/wordpress/
Reminds me of my grandma's house.

I love that TV!

Characters!

 Finally getting some characters in!

This is in the middle of the story. The game goes through the eras of gaming, and the character is in the 90's right now. Got his first house, and has to start being an 'adult'

Don't forget the things you love after you grow up :[

Here's me trying to figure out a style, All I knew is I wanted it with a painterly saturated style,  I had no idea what it would look like though. Also needed to be done fast but not look too sloppy.

I finally settled on more realistic starting out with a greyscale drawing. Makes things much quicker and easier to control colors when I lay them on later :D Also get to focus on the values more.

I have a WIP on my Deviantart with this process, actually! http://eponagirl.deviantart.com/art/Photoshop-Process-Elf-120778448
