CONCEPT ART
I illustrated concept art for Gathering Events in Paradise Bay. Players received rare Decorations, Paths, Fences, and Harvesters by participating in an event.
​
For the Hot Air Balloon Event, players used farmable items to build a large blowfish balloon. I wanted to conserve land space, so the Grand Balloon, Bubbly Blaster Decoration and Friendly Koi Harvester floated on the water. I also thought water would be a unique Path that correlated with the aqueous event.
The initial art direction was to create a hot air balloon that grew in stages. I pitched a balloon that changes into planets in the Solar System, a cloud-shaped balloon that develops into a thunderstorm, and a blowfish in a growing fish net. The blowfish concept was simplified to preserve the polycount in its final stage.
For the Piñata Event, I wanted to give players more landscaping options by making Rosebush Fences and Flower Bed Paths.
For the Holiday Event, I pitched a floating Santa Sleigh.
I illustrated concept art of Pet Characters, Decorations, and Habitats.
I animated storyboards of pets interacting with their environments to pitch concepts in Adobe After Effects.
I illustrated concept art of Build Your Own Ships. Ships were broken into five collectible pieces: the Sail, the Hull, the Figurehead, the Crow's Nest, and the Frill. Certain ships were built by using Harvesters and Map Tables.
ASSETS
I illustrated Stickers that were traded in-game to obtain pets.
TOOLS
