Fan art in the game!

Gooke6's picture
Hello there!
I am Margo Putzeys, a student Game- and Digital Design and I am currently doing my internship with Tale of Tales. I am still studying but I will be entering my Master year next schoolyear.
For my internship Auriea Harvey and Michael Samyn asked me if I wanted to work with the players and make models and concept art together. And with great pleasure I accepted this of course! This means you will be able to add art to the game!

But there are some 'rules' attached to this: If you make a 3D model, pleas send it as an .OBJ file to me. But a .Blender file ( Blender's file extension ) would be even better! But a .OBJ is good as well! As for the concept art you can send a photoshop file, PNG of JPEG.

So what can you make? Well it's like a set that the deers can wear in the game! This set includes: a mask, antlers and a pelt. Both made for the adult deer AND the baby deer. You can (if some of you know how and want to) texture these models by using a UV map. If you do texture them, send texture files as a PNG. ( PNG supports transparancy )
But of course you are never obligated to making more than you like. The meaning of this task is also for me to make stuff, so if you only would like to make the adult deer's models, that's fine by me. I can always texture them, add models, etc.

So if any of you are interested in putting your art or 3D models in the game. Send them to me and I can adjust them if necessary or take a look if something needs to be changed and so on.
You can of course also send your concept art to me and I can realise that concept art into a 3D model which may have a chance to be put in the actual game: The Endless Forest!

My e-mail adres is : Margo.Putzeys@gmail.com. I hope I will be hearing soon from you guys!!

Greetings,
Margo


EDIT: from Michael and Auriea --
To be clear, we want Margo to do ALL of the modeling and ALL of the texturing. Because that is what her internship is about. YOU, players, are requested to send her concept art or point her to already existing concept art (on this very website, for instance). SHE can choose which concepts she models and textures. But WE, Auriea and Michaël, choose which go into the game. We hope there will be many!

WOW! A lot of comments all of

WOW! A lot of comments all of a sudden Sticking out tongue
Okay...so to answer a few questions for you:

Yes, this is still going to happen as far as I know.
I don't know exactly when BUT I do however know they were going to work on it this month (if nothing came between it) but I can't say when it will be added/visible in the actual game.

I don't think they have 'update' the game or put it under maintenance to add the new sets. Normally it can just be added without shutting the game down.

But it will all probably still take a while. Afterall they are working on a few different projects at the same time so Smiling

Around the time I first joined, this http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x59/_Bunny_Artist/DemonDeer.jpg, was posted in the Arts area a loooong time ago. (like 2-3 years go) and while I don't remember the artist, I HIGHLY SUGGEST IT!

Also, a red fox set would be super cool!

Heya, Thes!

I`m afraid the submission for these sets ended on August 31 8C Good news being that the sets should be arriving soon. I believe a red panda set is going to be incorporated into the game, which would be somewhat similar to a red fox set. ♥

I'm not even remotely surprised that it didn't happen, in all honesty.

Bumps that discuss the topic

Bumps that discuss the topic are ok.. yeah it's a shame. :c Maybe it will, some day. Maybe if we could get Gooke to update us but it doesn't seem like they've visited here in a while. D:

I'm not surprised Gooke

I'm not surprised Gooke hasn't updated us, since her internship with ToT is over now. It would be nice to have an update from the ToT team, to see where they got with the vetting of the designs. Even if it is just to say none of them were selected to be put into the game, it would be nice to know one way or the other.
