da Vinci pistol for Jane Angel 2

I've spend 1,5 days making detailed pistol for Jane Angel2. Mostly aged metal took my time - VRay is great for new items not for antique. I've also noticed that I hate particular task if it costs more that one day.
About pistol:
Really, da Vinci was inventor of wheel-lock pistols and this invention was only his intravital honor avowed by contemporaries.



It will be a mini-level where player got to restore wheel-lock pistol to shot the lock on the door as it is only way to survive.

While rendering... UI stuff.

It is well-known that casual games are getting closer to quests. So we have to make more interactive elements. More speakable characters, more animations...
While I'm rendering I change chairs and run Photoshop on my notebook.
It is UI and identities for the game I've started to develop having free time (mostly while I render)- tactical strategy of pike-and-shots age (XVI-XVII centuries).

Jane Angel 2. Mystical watches.

I'm in progress of making agent Delgado (one of Shambala's keepers, the Naga). So he is definetely needs to have some special device to travel ghost world (Jane has to use "third eye" artefact and special magic items with). It is watch (second one belongs to agent Rogers, who is also the Naga)
I'm not quite satisfied with result I have, but it is good enough for the start (and for far view on Delgado's hand).

Hexus. Final work.

Hexus is about to be released in Russia.
Final work is going now. I had to make "a cabinet" for the game very quickly.
So, here we go. It is well understood that I've neglected historical trustworthiness, but it is
exusable measure.

Jane Angel 2. Hero's mobile phone.

Today I was occupied with model of FBI field agent (one of JA2's characters). By legend he is fan of mobile games, so I've stopped to make detailed phone model. It is detailed cause same phone will be part of UI. So, I gotta make not only a model but UI also.

Jane Angel 2. Face.

Almost day was spent on Jane Angel face (also I've rigged her body while rendering numerious test images). New game is about searching for Jane and saving her - so face should serve for these purposes (motivate players) - cause Jane will appear time after time in player's dream.
Also I realized that face should be old-fashioned a few because of casual audience.
It isn't final render but I think she is already old-fashioned and shows eternal sadness on her face.



Updated. Dress and necklace.
Updated 2. Face and hairstyle.
Updated 3. [standing Jane is under the cut]

Jane Angel 2. Holy Grail render.

Today I had to make Holy Grail for JA2, although Holy Grail isn't matter of new game, there are Jane's sister dreams about Grail.

Left vial is my vision of medieval representation of Grail (not similar to Indiana Jone's one) and right one is my furher developement looking for something really weird considering human stuff.

Working stuff. Chararcter for JA2.

Today I did first character render for Ja2. I had to make rigging for musician and of course texture. Result isn't brilliant but there isn't any impressive animated character in casual
games I ever saw.



Probably I'll render animation in low quality because of render time.

Island troll

We had meetings with bfg today. About Hexus and JA2. Quite productive I think. I got back home and have been drawin' this concept approx. for 4 hours. There isn't any chain-mail so I was really fast.

P.S. Troll means traell (slave) in terms of the Path mythology.
P.S. 2-meters high man is standing just behind the troll.
