Guess who this is based on?

It's an unused icon for a slots game I'm currently working on.  I just couldn't get it quite right enough for the boss to like so he got left out.

Chubby Cars

These were test sketches for a new slots game.  Luckily another idea was picked to I didn't have to draw any more.  I don't like drawing cars.  Even super chubby cartoon ones.  Have I mentioned I don't like perspective either?  Cars have a lot of it.  I was planning on tweaking the heck out of them if they ever got to the colouring stage.  I do kind of like my little classic cadillac though.

Another Slots Game

I thought I'd post another one of the slots games I've done this past year.  It's called Piggy Wiggy Riches so I'll give you 2 guesses as to what the theme is.  I have distinct memories of coming up with the look of this game, because I got the theme a few days before my braces went on last year.  So while I was laying back getting these suckers glued on my teeth I busied my mind by mentally sketching out what things would look like.

And a few animated symbols:

I was really happy with that fox being petted.

Jeweltastic

These are some unused gems from work.  I'm not really a natural when it comes to this shiny sort of thing.  I have to do a Google image search to see how everyone else does it then stare at all the examples for a few hours thinking "Holy Heck!  How'd they do that!" before attempting to colour my own.  This is also my first attempt at using Google SketchUp, the free version.  It took about a day to figure out the basics and even then I would break into a sweat with the extreme desire to reach into my computer screen and rotate the damned shape with my bare hands!

Showing Off

I got permission to show off what I've done for work!  I didn't want to get into trouble by showing images that I shouldn't be so I haven't posted anything, ever, I've done for work.  So this is what I mainly do for a living:  SLOTS!  

This is the latest one I've finished called "Galaxy Cafe".  The title is animated, parts of the background are animated, all of the icons are animated and here a few of my favourites:

For each game I also have to create 2 Bonus Game which you get to by fulfilling certain gameplay requirements, like having a certain icon show up or having a group of icons all line up in the same row.  For this game, one is called Burger Buck! where you pick burgers on a grill to earn credits.  The robot is animated flinging his arms around excitedly when you win something.  The fries also boil in the frier.

The second Bonus Game is called "Cosmic Desserts".  You pick one dessert from each row to win credits.  The jello changes colours, the pudding rolls back and forth in the bowl, the pie opens up to show a pair of winking eyes and a lots more goes on too.

There's a Mystery UFO that sometimes shows up to change an icon so you can win.  I'm really happy with how it turned out!  This is the kind of gif I send to the programmers so they know how this are supposed to look.  Click on it to see it animate.

This is just a fraction of what I created for this particular game.  I'm planning on posting more of my work soon.
