TLBB Mount Illustrator Question and Answer

  Q:‘Mounts’ are among the most popular features of TLBB Gold What inspires you when creating these fantasy creatures?,rift gold
  A:There are so many things that inspire me. From watching fantasy movies,Dragon Oath Gold, to marine life and ancient legends that I might come across in museums or read about, it can be the smallest of things that trigger an idea in my head. With a creative mindset,TERA gold, I’m always aware of the little details surrounding me which I try to implement in TLBB Gold.
  Q:Mounts are seen as a way of ‘showing off’ and getting around quickly. Do you take these two points into consideration when in the design process?
  A:Both of them should be considered. I am more concerned about the visible result of the mounts and the cool appearance of them that satisfy the gamer’s needs rather than the ‘speed’ functionality which isn’t implemented until a later stage of the development process. On a design point of view however, illustrators will try to avoid the appearance of a slow mount, just because they are much cooler when they move quickly.
  Q:Some of the Mounts in TLBB are specifically designed for speed, others for looks, but each class boasts its own mount. How did you go about choosing the mount design for the specific classes?
  A:When we design mounts for classes, we tend to know the features of the classes first. Knowing this makes it a smoother process when choosing the most suitable class mount. There’s no specific formula or reasoning behind the decision, we simply choose which we think will go best.
  Q:How much creative freedom do you have when designing these mounts? And how much of it follows a brief?
  A:Most of the mounts are creative freedom. Some of the mounts are designed with the intention of meeting gamers’ needs but most of them are from our own creative brushes which are in line with the feel, look and story of the game.
