A project of video games covers adaptations :
In my playful evolution, there were the video games. And many really impressed me !
EarthWorm Jim is one of those.
The aim of this project is to adapt, in realistic style and with my vision, these covers of retro gaming titles ; those of my childhood.
So, the second of them I chose is the game EarthWorm Jim (Super Nintendo/Mega Drive/Mega-CD/…)
I always wanted to show more than the realistic process through the drawing, but unlike the Super Mario Bros. draw, Jim had already an expressive face on the cover. So, I decided to work another idea. For that, I was inspired by the Earthworm Jim HD remastered version (Xbox 360/PlayStation 3) to focus on muscle definition. Indeed, we can see an original Jim with strong and hard shapes evolving into a round and muscular cartoon character. But muscle density was still too soft for me ; so, it was decided, my main goal for this illustration will be a strong muscle definition, as an anatomical board.
