The concept isn't clear. If you hadn't said that they were for a game, I would have no clue.

Then please excuse t118! Lets clear this up-

Game Concept – Last Hour
Introduction

Last Hour is a fantasy based action adventure/real time strategy game in which the player leads and commands the defences of a hidden city called Condor secluded deep in the warring country of Sorel.

Image 1. Cotton

Here we see one of the main characters, the voodoo controlled puppet "Dol" trailing a group of imperial slugs accross the forest during sunset. I had originally planned to introduce her puppet minions in this image, who can be released during the game for short combat periods. I would have done this by creating a thick halo of tree shrub around Dol and letting the minions hang out over the lower troops. However I thought this would take focus away from the main character and simply opted for a more simplistic image. If anything I think it lacks expression however we are talking about a puppet.

Image 2. Predator

The 2nd image is Dol again but this time equipped with her "mount". This being the major mode of travell for the character, it allows her to quickly intercept invading groups and misdirect them using traps/explosives, essentially blocking off routes and breaking formations. I felt it was important to show the more violent asppects of the character but still keep the elegance. O_o

Image 3. Terror

This image features the main player character "Kugen" during his own travel phase. Here we see him attacking a nearby geurilla hold, transforming his heavy golem warriors into feiry hounds. If anything the picture needs more geurillas, Kugen should be much brighter as the source of this aura and the hounds in the sky should still burn brightly regardless of the moonlight.
