Fish World Introduces Roulette!

From time to time I have the opportunity to work on projects outside of my usual role as a content artist for Fish World. I always jump at the chance to contribute to these projects; because they’re outside of my usual workflow I end up learning a lot every time!

We have a casino within Fish World that contains slot machines, blackjack, and other games, but a long requested feature has been a roulette game. I contributed the background art for the machine, as well as the wooden roulette wheel. Here’s the final art I submitted to our UI artist!

This was done all in Photoshop. My very early sketch for the background contained a lot of hastily drawn figures, one of which looked like she was holding a gun (it was supposed to be a martini glass, but hey). They all thought it was hilarious, so gun-toting spy made it into the final art! XD

As you can see the background was recoloured, and the wheel’s central column changed up a bit in the final version. It was pretty neat seeing it all come together with the animated wheel rotating and the ball bouncing around!
