NEW ART FROM ADAM ROUSH
Adam Roush is our Senior Concept Artist here at KingsIsle Entertainment. Sometimes Adam will create a series of concept art for a particular scene or character. Here are a few concepts of his most recent pieces this month:
“Here's the LiHere's the Inventor's Scanner wand from the Novus Explorer's Pack. Had fun here, especially adding a retro game screen to a steampunk device.” - Adam Roush
“Here's a completely normal banana tree. Definitely not a unicorn dressed as one, that would be ridiculous.” - Adam Roush
"Here's a mood painting for the Lightkeeper's Estate. I wanted to show energetic waves and lightning in this area, which was fun to paint. :)" - Adam Roush
"Here's the Novus Masterpiece Gear. I absolutely LOVED working on this design, easily one of my favorites. It's like wearing the Conatus zone as a gearset." - Adam Roush
