I was just looking at the awesome pictures in LNOE. So I started wondering how they made them. Obviously they are pictures of the real persons in their characterroll. I supose they altered them using Photoshop. Does anyone has any idea how they did it? I just love that style and would love to learn how to do it so I can use it on personal pictures.
I THINK that they use the Watercolor filter. That seems to be about it.
I think its over to energizercoony for the low down as he has had the LNoE treatment himself!!
I agree..the artwork really helps 'sell' the game. It is really got that 'b-movie' feel. Had they used just drawn art, I don't think the same impact would have been felt. Good choice!
I agree as well. Had they not given it that look I don't think it would have come off as strong. The art direction was top notch for this and they captured the feel of the B-movie zombie flick to a tee!
Great artwork indeed! Love the game :cool:

Well then, I kinda know a little bit, not being an artist or photographer my self.
The Art in last night on Earth, and A Touch of Evil in fact was directed by Scott Hill, a wildly talented artist. Both in painting and photography. In fact you might find some of his art in the short lived Battletech CCG. Jasons too in fact.
Scott filmed all the art with a fancy pantsy digital camera. Not all of the effects you see are from photoshop. Take my Uuuurrggghh card for example. That was real make up. If you go to my page on myspace at

then you will see a few undoctered as it were photos of me and others. Including a super secret photo of the redneck zombies lol.
Scott then did work on the photos digitally to add a few things. I have no idea what programs he used.
Quite a few good pics there! I especially love the dog picture. That's hilarious.
I also agree on the artwork that helps selling the game. Very nice done. If I find some time, I would like to make such a pic and try to get the effect in PS. Maybe in the boring days to come, emp?
If you need a model...I'm your man
(Ken just graduated from nightschool as a photographer, for those who might wonder what the hell he is talking about)
