Why don't you tell people a little bit about what CG Bot is?

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.

What kind of art are you doing [for Star Citizen]?

Sergio RosasOwner, CG Bot

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.

What kind of ships would the fans out there recognize [that CG Bot made, besides the Bengal carrier and the Hornet for Chris's original demo]?

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?

This was the first time you guys have done anything in CryEngine, right?

Sergio RosasOwner, CG Bot

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.

How did you get involved with Chris Roberts? When did you first start working with Chris?

Sergio RosasOwner, CG Bot

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.

How many people at CG Bot are working on our project?

Sergio RosasOwner, CG Bot

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.
