I am not an artist. A professional artist will definitely have to be brought in to do the art for “Rosebud”, the project name for my game about sledding dinosaurs. But the prototype needs some kind of art, something to hint at what the finished product might look like. Little glass tokens in different colors will only hold a potential player’s interest for so long.
So I drew some dinosaurs. That’s half the reason why the game features dinosaurs at all, because I like to draw them. (The other half of the reason is dinosaurs are awesome.) I’ve been drawing these cartoon dinosaurs to amuse myself for years, and when I was talking about creating a prototype for this game, my wife suggested that I use these for art, since she finds them so cute. I do too, and hopefully you will as well.
What do you think? Do you have a favorite?
