Owner, CG Bot
CG Bot is an art outsourcing company. We do video game art for all sorts of different video games, and currently we're working on y'alls. Very excited to be doing so.
For you guys, we're doing a lot of ships, a little bit of characters, a little bit of 2D stuff, a little bit of universe maps or whatever. Just kind of a little bit of everything, but mostly the spaceships.
Well, pretty much, I think we did most of the modeling on the first trailer. We did a couple of the characters.
Did you do the Vanduul fighter?
We did.
Yes, that was the first time we did CryEngine. We did lots of Unreal stuff before, lots of next-gen stuff all over, but CryEngine was the first time to work with it this extensively.
So I started working with Chris at Digital Anvil. Back in the day, I used to work at Origin Systems where Chris was on a different team. And then he went away to start a new company. And then maybe like a year later, I started doing contract work for him and then became art director on Conquest: Frontier Wars.
I think currently we have about 15 people. It's based on what we're working on at the time, but we're looking to expand that role and go quite a bit bigger. We are definitely working on getting that team bigger and bigger for you guys.
We have 70 people all together. On the art side, we have a programming team of 10 with administrators and stuff. We have another 10 kind of admins, and then everybody else is an artist.
