Battleborn Player Character Concepts
Concept work for various playable Battleborn characters. I decided that since this stuff is a bit dated I'm just going to post it all in one big dump.
This work was done between 2013 and 2015 and was my first experience working as a concept artist. To be honest, I was flying by the seat of my pants, but I had a ton of fun! I've grown a lot as an artist since this project, but Battleborn and these characters will always have a special place in my heart. It was an incredible learning experience. I truly, couldn't have asked for a better IP to cut my teeth on.
