Kingdoms And Conquest Music Pack Cover Art Creation

Time lapse video of me drawing with traditional media (pencil, paper, pen, marker) and then digitally assembling and coloring the art for the Kingdoms And Conquest Music Pack! Art and music by Joel Steudler

Wow! You have an incredible talent with art design. This must've taken ages to do.

It's just amazing how talented you are in - dare I say(?) - every way. I love the artwork. I'm actually working on a medieval fantasy game project, so the artwork and music is spot on and very inspiring. Seeing such fine craft serves as extra motivation for me to complete my own project. Here's hoping it will be something you - too - can enjoy once it's finished.

I am definitely -not- talented at prompt response to comments! But thanks, I will attempt to prevent my ego from swelling too big to stuff back into my head. I'm just trying to make some cool stuff occasionally, though lately I've been administrating more than composing... more on that in a post I'll write quite soon! Hopefully it makes me rich so I can spend more time working on improving my art skills (and music, too)!

Six hours, roughly... about an hour apiece for the inks/marker grays on the physical art, then the rest on digital coloring and compositing. That's about average for me, 6-8 hours per cover piece. Then another four to assemble all the promo graphics for Steam and online stores, and finally a few more hours to put together a trailer for the pack. I do wish that composing the music was the only part of making and marketing these packs!
