Guild Wars 2 work

[WilbertPierce]

Amazing work. What's your general workflow for thiS kind of project. How many did you have to work on at once?

[Medicinehorse7]

Did you conceptualize the creature design , or where these pieces a part of the company decision as a team?

Nice !

[SammehSAMURAI]

Fantastic Designs! I look forward to killing your creations soon

[makan ansari]

Awesome work man thumbs up!

[digi-mech]

some lovely sculpting..

but can I just say that reptiles don't have mammary glands... its a small point, but it spoils that design for me.

These figures are great and inventive in memorable ways and they work so well together as a set. Love the final renders. The colors and shading have just the right amount of details.

pOiNtPuShEr - thanks Danny, hope all is well you dude! we should meet up sometime soon. its been too long my friend. i miss your face haha
WilbertPierce - thanks man. generally we had 5-10 workdays to complete. i only worked on one at a time. workflow consisted of basemesh, sculpting, retopo, uvs, bake maps, texture, and then paint skin weights. pretty standard practice for any game studio.
Medicinehorse7 - more of a team decision i would say. the art director always said a good modeler can make a concept but a great one can make a concept better. so, some of these i took some artistic liberties that i felt made them stronger designs. whereas, others i just made what was in the concept. it really depended on feedback from the team and lore behind each character.
SammehSAMURAI - haha thanks dude! kill away!
makan ansari - thanks
digi-mech - to each their own, thanks for checking it out.

I love that there is very little drop in quality between the high-rez versions you've shown and the in game versions I see just about every night now.

Having come from other MMOs, GW2 is such a fun experience and a lot of that is owed to your great work.

[Scrybe]

Great work Jim! You made our game AWESOME! Can't wait to see what you're working on now.
