About BlackHermit
BlackHermit is born with six years of experience in the infographic field, a great passion for graphics and the head full of ideas in 2013. I choose the video game to develop and share my creations, adapted for entertainment and creativity.
But BlackHermit is not going to stop there. Graphics are a rich universe offering many possibilities to make your projects alive. Video games, animation, visual art, illustration, multimedia and project of all kindā¦Thatās why BlackHermitās here.
My ways
Pencil drawing is one of my specialties. I use it as a medium for a lot of works making a first form to an original idea. Features are remade on PC to refine the outlines, then colors, shadows and lightning effects are added.
I use GIMP 2 and Photoshop to make all I need on PC.
Iāve developed my own graphic style, but I know how to adapt my style to what itās wanted. Cartoon style, digital painting, drawing style or realistic, your art will be my art !
My inspiration
I take it in the universes of Bioshock Infinite and Dishonored, for the graphic style as the ideas.
I often use the drawing style, details of environments, colors and lightning effects as models,
depending of the creation I want to make.
When I want some cartoon effect or minimalist size, my inspiration will follow Kingdom Rush.
I am used to make works on the Fantasy, Sci-fi, and more recent Modern fields (ex : modern fire
weapons).
Concept Art
I realize concepts of characters, creatures, weapons, vehicles and environments.
Take care of the details, originality and quality of the rendering are values that
I consider with the greatest importance. I never create a concept without a story
or a unique feature behind it.
Concept Art is another field for what Iām specialized. Because itās the base for
the work of the team to select ideas and make it usable, this work has
a capital importance for the conception of a great project.
Pixel Art
More simplistic style but necessary for the composition of resources for RPG Maker, Pixel Art is
also a field for what I spend some times. I create all kind of graphics we can need (characters,
creatures, items, environments, backgroundsā¦) with or without animations. I know how to
change styles on this.
Logos and Icons
On the end of my studies in food industry, I know the importance of the sight on visuals.
The presentation of a project is the first contact between you and the targeted person,
your invitation for her to follow you farther. Graphics are there to do her enjoyment.
I design icons, logos and presentations for any kind of use (boxshot, posterā¦), industrial as multimedia.
Do you think this has no importance for video games ? Nevertheless, this is details of the packaging
on the can on a table, or those of the poster in the street that make the player more interested,
immerged in your world. A well-made environment is the main key to keep the interest
and the attention of the spectators and create the immersion in your universe.
