Indies, Assemble!

I was recently contacted by Drew Taylor, the editor of Jumpbutton Magazine about doing an illustration for them, as well as an interview about all of the videogame themed pictures I've been drawing. The theme for issue #2 of the magazine is 'character select', and Drew suggested an ensemble piece with some of my favorite indie game characters.

The result is what you see above, the character select screen from my ultimate indie adventure crossover game. It was a lot of work getting this many characters to fit together just right, this is definitely the most complex piece I've made, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out. It will be appearing as a spread inside the magazine, and parts of it will also be on both the original, and alternative versions of the cover

I've made up a bunch of wallpaper sizes to put on your devices. But to get the full size image, as well as more info about this illustration, how I work, Atari 2600's, nostalgia, Goldeneye and fashion design, you'll have to pick up the mag. It should be available (in both print and digital forms) soon, but in the meantime you can buy or download some back issues. You should, it's super great.

I'll keep you posted.
