《古墓丽影9》艺术指导布雷诺克·亚当斯概念画曝光

在“古墓丽影15周年庆祝活动”期间，艺术家布雷诺克·亚当斯（Brenoch Adams）曾提到过自己已经为《古墓丽影》工作了近4年，职位是晶体动力的高级艺术家（Senior Artist，现在官方微博称他为艺术指导Art Director），工作主要是为古墓丽影游戏系列提供概念设计（在《古墓丽影9》的宣传过程中其实一直没有看到他的身影）。2013年6月22日，布雷诺克将其为《古墓丽影9》创作的部分概念图公布在了其博客中，同期间官方微博也在陆续转载。

“游戏制作方很仁慈地允许我公开一小部分我为古墓丽影所做的工作。为了尽可能多地给制作团队提供细节，我们制作了几乎近2200份艺术作品。
The powers that be were kind enough to let me post a small dose of the work I did on Tomb Raider. We were able to crank out just under 2.2k pieces of art as a crew to provide the team with as much detail as we could provide.

我是负责角色概念设计的所有工作。并画出情节串连图板。
I was responsible for all aspects of concept development from characters to storyboards.

紧紧围绕着生存的主题，我们将一种极度程式化的表现方式变成了一种电影的美学标准。
We went from a more heavily stylized approach, to a grounded filmic aesthetic. The message was always about survival.”

“早期的世界是开放的并使用快速穿越技术。怀有敌意的居民占据着特定区域，小岛成了一座危险之岛。
The early days of the world were open and utilized fast traversal mechanics. It matured into a hostile island with hostile inhabitants occupying specific regions.”

“敌人角色的审查经历了类似迭代的过程。我们从可怕的恶魔变成了邪教徒。这是我们的一个试验版本。
The enemy characters went through a similar iteration process. We went from horrific demons, to grounded island cultists. This is one version we were experimenting with.”

Malibu Grand Prix in Redwood city CA... open for 35+ years... will be closing its doors soon.
I spent my childhood roaming it's arcade, putting on its majestic mini greens, and driving like a rockstar on it's professional regulation tracks with mini go-carts.
You will be missed, o' maker of fun.
RIP MGP
