"Kraken" cancelled project - concept art for box covers / miniatures
These are all concept art sketches for a cancelled project.
Box cover concept ideas - an evil goddess with a crystal ball, summoning the kraken
B&W sketch
Kraken minature sketches
Even more sketches
Direction mattered when it came to game mechanics, and the movement of the kraken on the board. I thought it would be neat if the miniature had a triangular base
More kraken miniature sketches.
Client requested just tentacles, but no face peeking out of the water
Sailor miniature ideas.
The client wasn't sure how "abstract" of a player piece they wanted- they also wanted something reminiscent of a wood carving (but would ultimately be made of plastic).
Player pieces / sailors are often being knocked off their ships by the kraken- client requested fearful poses.
At this point the project was shelved.
