This is an update on my previous post regarding the “Village and Defensive Line Map” Expansion. In the meantime artwork was finalized and things like LOS indicators, values etc. where added to the feature tiles. Also the winter / thaw weather backside of the map was created. Make sure to have a look at the updated portfolio post on this project, which features higher resolution artwork, some counters and mockups with actual tiles on the map artwork.

A prototype  and first public look at the game will occur at Williamsburg Muster on February 4th-6th and Prezcon February 25th-27th game conventions .

Created for the “Village and Defensive Line Map” Expansion for the board wargame “Frontline General: Spearpoint 1943″. The maps are going to be 12.5”x36.5” and the tiles alone are 4″ x 4″ each (around 10 x 10cm), so the detail level is very high on this piece of work. A level of detail I truly enjoy to work at.

The game is available for preorder / P500 and will hopefully soon go into final development and production. The artwork was cleared by the client for promotional usage on my blog.

Also check my portfolio post on this project, which features higher resolution artwork.
