Total War: Shogun 2, Fall Of The Samurai

Recently, The Creative Assembly published an art book, containing loads of concept art and illustrations from the games to date. Some of the work I did is featured but unfortunately, they didn't credit me. :( So if anyone's curious, here are photos of some of the illustrations I produced during my three months there:

.....I'd completely forgotten about so many of these! I worked in-house during my contract and blitzed through quite a few illos to meet the deadline. The brief was to create Japanese block-printing-style images with a modern twist and the AD was really pleased with the results (phew~).
I had a blast working there and was pretty sad to leave, but I'd been offered a permanent job at NaturalMotion Games Ltd. a month before my contract ended, so I left (2011). Breaking into the industry was super tough, but I couldn't have asked for a cooler first job. :) Many thanks to Kevin McDowell for giving me that chance, and to all the staff at the time for being so lovely.
