Sketchbook: Alyssa Herman
polycounter lvl 12
Hello! I'm Alyssa, and I'm currently a second year student at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh studying Game Art/Design. My main focus is 2D work, but I do a lot of 3D in classes (I'm just not very confident with showing much of my 3D work at this time).
I'm still a fledgling when it comes to concepting/illustrating compared to most people on here, but I am determined to improve myself. I'm always looking for critiques on stuff, so don't be afraid to tell me if something sucks : P

Global Game Jam 2013
Concept Artist/Texture artist/graphic designer for Corpus Noctis @ GGJ Pittsburgh
Crazy AI antagonist for CN. Fun fact: Fellow CN team member Jen Green (prop models/textures), a fellow jammer that was in the room, and myself voice acted for her. Probably one of the funniest parts of making the game.
Model quickly made post jam for my texture mapping class. Deviated from the concept because reasons. I'm just trying to improve at hand painted textures and whatnot. Shout outs to Sean VanGorder for yelling at me to present stuff better : P Glad to have the grads and upperclassmen to keep me in check though.
Tried to keep most of the concepts simple for GGJ, since we had such a short period of time to get everything made. Our team rocked, and I'm glad to have worked with them. Credits: Gregory Mirles (Environments/Tech Artist/Models/Texturing/Scripts/etc), Dylan Rinker (AM model/unused (sadly) flashlight model/textures), Jen Green (prop models/textures/voice work), and James "Mikey" Kelly (programmer/scripts/research)

Model sheet I made for a character I was going to model this quarter. He has been scrapped for now in favor of another character, but I am still tweaking the newer character's designs

I'm excited
Heavy influences from Sci Fi games and Huke's Black Rock Shooter character designs
