"Fraking cylons stole my baby"

Hi everyone, 
welcome to the first part of the development diary for Aikonia. My part in this 10 part series is to share with you some art from my personal sketchbook as I visually develop some core areas of the Aikonia story and characters. Feel free to click on the images for a larger view.






Not much to say here, this place is pretty much a wreck, I wonder what manner of events transpired here? Overall I think these thumbnails pretty much sum up the village. 
This village has been on my mind for quite some time now. I feel strongly that the strength of Aikonia will be based on two factors, one being how fast we can engage a players curiosity and the second being how well we can convert that curiosity to trust. Overall I think this village is a great opportunity to start building on these ideas. 
There are a couple things I can see changing from these to finish , mostly the scale on some objects. I think the most fun will be in establishing some sense of texture to the buildings and developing a consistent and intriguing color scheme. 

I'll leave you with some character development.


Till next time,
Jose Jimenez III
