Login art created for Dauntless, a free-to-play action RPG. The process starts off in Photoshop with some concepts. Next, I pose characters and add lighting in Unreal. Finally, I return to Photoshop to add VFX and paint-overs.
Since our login artwork is repurposed for box art, which requires crops in many different image ratios, we design the image with this in mind. The focal point tends to be centered, and all the characters are on separate layers.
Thank you to Kirk Gibbons for his feedback and Charles Icay for his help with posing some of the behemoths!
