Repeated intro
Hey everyone Want to see what a Valfaris character looks like before it gets 2D-ified for its in-game appearance? Of course you do. The triple-headed potbellied brute you see below is a Tomb Keeper. He keeps Valfaris' subterranean tombs nice and tidy by eviscerating anyone who dares stray into them.

Slain: Back from Hell changes
TOMB KEEPER: BEFORE
As you can see, it's rendered here as a low-poly 3D model. After the initial sketch concept phase, this is how Andrew [Andrew Gilmour – dev druid/art warlock] likes to start working on Valfaris' characters. When he's happy with how it looks, he extracts the pixels and sets about bringing it to life in the game.
TOMB KEEPER: AFTER
And, after its preliminary three-dimensional fling, here's the Tomb Keeper in all his flattened (but still fully enfattened) 2D pixellated glory. A hulking colossus of an adversary that towers formidably over Therion. I should point out the game is still deep in development so everything you see here is work-in-progress and may not fully represent how ass-kickingly awesome the final version will be. Oh, and I don't think it's too late to wish everyone a happy New Year and all the best for 2018! Matt | Digital Uppercut Wishlist here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/600130/Valfaris/
