Game design/graphics and concept drawings

My level concept is based on an alien planet on which a large teddy bear type character is the ruling monarch.

Boss sprite in 2D game

Worshipped by the native population yet no one know's his origin. 
The main character will battle or sneak their way across a beautiful alien planet to save the remaining colonists after a surprise attack by the "bear" and his minions.

This has been the current progress on the main character. 
Its been slow to even get this and I hope to have the full character model soon.
The graphic for these characters were done completely in Adobe photo-shop. 

I started off by drawing my ideas out on paper

Scetch of 2D game graphics

and as you can see I haven't changed the main enemies desige all that much.
How ever the main playable character is still in the works.

#UPDATE#
I have since finished and handed in my 2D game for assessment.
The "finished" game has some minor errors that have cripled my once working menu screen

Game home screen draft 1

The game now looks like this upon starting where as it did look like this

Game main menu

This picture of the menu predate my importing my background graphics into the photo.

The main characters and alien sprites turned out to be one of the most tedious yet enjoyable parts of the game. They came out very differently to how imagined them but I don't feel thats a bad thing.

Character 2
Character 3













One of the last vector graphics in my game is the gun sprite desigened for the first playable charecter seen above in green.

photoshop, post apc image

Firstly we choose old, aged and or worn photos of old or broken things.

Image types

Then we used  the quick selection tool to select the sky and cut it out out of the images.



Then we overlayered this house image over a the sky image and we end up with this.



Again we cut a section out of another image and planted it inside of the previously edited image.



Then we repeated the process again and we added some rock piles to the image to finsih off its apocalyptic feel.
