Great work Ben! The character of these really translates in-game.

[Ben_Olson]

Matias- Yeah I hear ya. I wish I could have gotten to know them more too. Especially the Wingstick trainer.

rlederer- Thanks. Id has some of the best animators in the business. I was amazed.

Every time I would get to see a new stage in the development a character design, from model, to texture, to animation, to actually in-game I was like a kid on christmas morning.

Some of my designs weren't even that great. My Ghost Clan concepts (posting them soon) were maybe just so so. But in-game, when they're flipping and parkouring all over the place and throwing blades at you they look bad ass. That takes effort from every department on the team. Concept is just a launching point.

These are fantastic. I'm playing this game right now and loving it. There is a lot of personality in these character designs. Makes the game more fun to play.

Please, post more!

i bought arkham city... but played through RAGE again instead, haha. finished it up last night, such a great game.
although, i felt like i only scratched the surface through the entire game. all the way up until the very end i felt like i was barely into the world... i want to go back, explore more, meet more people, have more adventures.
*sigh
maybe some day. (hint hint id)
thanks for posting more shit mang. love it. 5 stars all the way.

This is superb work.

The quality of your vision is buried deep inside eveything you're doing - you even turn the standard concept character design pose into something very special.

Great temperament shining through wonderful work.
Whoever has hired you for this is very lucky indeed.

[Greg Lambrakis]

Have always been a fan of your stuff Ben, and lately you've really moved into
some next level skills as both a painter and a designer. Congrats on your
success and on the beautiful work.

[Thadas]

Sick stuff! Thanks for sharing!

[Ben_Olson]

This is a concept of kvasir. I included variations of his little shoulder robot. I like the shotgun approach sometimes.

[Ben_Olson]
