Here
are my most recent ‘Kobold Ate My Baby!’ sketches for the upcoming Kobolds’ fan
site I am working on. ‘Kobold Ate My
Baby!’ (KAMB for short) is designed by Chris O’Neill and Dan Landis from 9th Level Games; the artwork for the rulebook is illustrated by the talented John Kovalic. As I touched on in my previous
posts, it is important that my kobolds are recognizable as part of the KAMB universe
(paying tribute to Mr. Kovalic's artwork), while not being copies of Mr. Kovac’s
kobolds (having their own distinct look).
The
kobold below is a re-drawing of the kobold holding stolen woman’s undergarments
featured in my last post. I drew a
Hobbes’ (Calvin & Hobbes) style grin on this kobold’s face; I felt this
grin gave the kobold a mischievous and guilty look.
The
kobold above is a new iteration of the ‘Kobold Magic-User’ from my previous
post. I based the style of this kobold
on the Black Robed Mage from the original 8-bit Final Fantasy NES game.
Chickens
are featured throughout the KAMB rulebook; they are both the prey and the
adversaries to the kobolds.
This
illustration shows a pair of kobolds trapping an unsuspecting chicken.
For
the next post in this series I am planning to create some Adobe Illustrator
graphics based on this series of sketches.
