Backgrounds and Eyebrows
🕑 Added 2020-04-21 01:33:53 +0000 UTCDear Insane Children,
Let's start today's post with A GIFT.
These days, lots of us are using technology like Zoom to connect with work, school, friends and family. And I noticed a number of artists sharing backgrounds for use with video conferencing programs. So I thought, "Hey! We could make and share some too!"
Behold! Inspired by the world of "Alice," a collection of background images crafted by Omri.
Yay!
Eyebrows and Eyelashes
The team is busy at work defining some of the key aspects of Alice's design for Asylum. We have explored this topic in the past but never with the goal of settling on a final model for our main character. Here's some of the work Omri's done lately...
We talked in detail about the topic of defining Alice's shape, ratios, face, and other design elements during last week's Live Stream on Twitch.
If you missed it live on Twitch then you can watch the backup on YouTube via THIS LINK.
The part where we discuss defining Alice's features starts around 55 minutes.
Feel free to provide feedback on what's presented here in the comments below. But keep in mind that this is Not Final - and that Joey will start work on her presentation for this in the coming days.
It's Always Monday
Alex has been working to transition our team management tool over to a site called Monday.
This offers a much clearer structure for task assignment and tracking vs. what we were using previously (Trello). You can see here the tasks assigned to me (American!) for writing.
I expect we'll start to see lots of good progress being made once the team is fully transitioned to this new system.
This Week
It's an Off Week for Live Streaming... so don't expect a scheduled event. Though I might jump on Twitch to stream some of the new DOOM: Eternal. Been hearing great things about that game. And I need to continue building up my Twitch presence so we can unlock various features.
If you want to receive notification for when I go live on Twitch, then subscribe (or follow?) to me via THIS LINK.

Alice with short hair looks like Eminem in 8 mile.
Thank you for the backgrounds, they look mesmerizing. A quick note though about Lizzie's grave, it says "Lisbeth" instead of Elizabeth.
Love what Iβm seeing for the face so far, still looks like Alice which I imagine could be tricky when moving the age around for a character.
I think you've pretty much nailed the Alice look, which is great to see. This one looks a lot like the young Israeli model, Amit Goffman Levi, who's roughly the same age, I would guess
Thank you so much for these backgrounds! My meeting tomorrow morning just got a whole heap better!
Love the third Alice, so beauty! I suggest to use the clean face only in a part of the game, maybe in her period more obscure, because I love to see her beauty and crazy, but could be an idea for a drammatic moment x) canβ t wait to see the development, bye guys! Continue like so!
Love the progress on Alice's design! And that she looks like *the* Alice to me. In regards to making her look younger and more childlike, I think lack of make up and a rounder face will do the trick :)
Mesmerizing!
I love these backgrounds and Im excited to use them, thank you! Alice is really looking good. The eyebrows thing gave me a good chuckle this past week, which I needed. It's great to be apart of this process. ^_^ Cant wait for the stream!
Yes! Thank you! These are amazing, even if it is just a start it's definitely a good foundation to build on. Alice does indeed look awesome, and striped tiger brows. π I also especially like the Cheshire cat's reflection in the watch face!
Thank you so much for the backgrounds! Alice's design, I have to say look awesome! I am interested in how the 3d models will look and having a clean face as some have said gives an innocent feel towards the younger alice who has yet to finish her journey through the asylum. I am excited to see more! ππ
I think her clean face with no makeup resembles the real Alice Liddell. It is interesting to see the different layers of Alice. β€β€

These are absolutely amazing, thank you for sharing!
Do the DOOM eternal! Graphics and sound track kicks ass and first weapon to buy is sticky bombs lol.
Oh my goodness it looks so pretty, i like how youve kept her looking like the original alice aka the blue dress, striped tights and punk ass boots, i love it and cant wait to see its animations in fighting and all sorts once the game is out, your doing an amazing job as always, this game will be the biggest success yet, the other alices arnt that interesting, entaining but boring after a while, maybe this new one will be way more entertaining and amazing!
