i dont remember doing any bug concepts for T2, i don't think anyone was that happy with the bugs in the first game

ah, well the original idea begin tossed around was that they would be like a series of mini-bosses, like metal gear. Each would be really unique and cool. You would have to fight each of your former teamates. Time and budget constraints meant they ended up as kind of a generic black ops squad.

Daryl Mandryk @mandrykart.bsky.social · 05/09/2025

Hmm I can't remember. I think what's there was pretty much what was planned...it was done late in production so we didn't have time to do anything to extravagant

IIRC the original plan was to have wolfpack be basically a bunch of minibosses you would fight through the game...kind of like metal gear

Daryl Mandryk @mandrykart.bsky.social · 22/08/2025

actually, you know what else? anything that needs to transform from one state to another. Like a robot to a car....that's a nightmare to design. So basically Transformers are my art nightmare.

Some kind if assault rifle...there was a new one for the sequel, but I think this was done before that one existed

its a great book. Yeah, I think I worked on all of most of them? I'll post up some of the Sloth stuff.

i don't think we ever got that far along. We had one playable level with some desert raptors which were pretty much just a palette swap of the OG raptors.

Daryl Mandryk @mandrykart.bsky.social · 17/05/2025

I think that was the idea at the time

#digitalart #sketch #photoshop #spiderman #spidermanPS4 one of the cooler perks of working on Spiderman was the chance to work on comic cover art. This was a homage to the classic Romita cover:

probably the stress of wondering if you'll still have a career in 2 years
