The Idea was to create further visual distinction between drone-types, other than the head.Īnother thing we tried was changing the look of the horns. After that I made some over-paints to try different suggestions we came up with and see if they would improve the design further.įor example: We tried implementing the softer wrinkled skin from the elbows, at the shoulder as well. Our 3D Artist Vitali started out with the main body of work, modelling the Hiver while refining the design. So working on the Hiver for Kenshi 2, a main point was to not implement changes that are too drastic and would change its visual identity. I remember being filled with wonder at my first encounter with one of those stick-legged creatures, wandering alone through the desert. As for the Western Hive we decided to keep it as close as possible to the original”Ĭhristopher (Concept Artist): "The Hiver is beloved by fans, and a really interesting design. We decided to change things up with Kenshi 2 and give them the love they deserve by making a new unique design for all additional sub-races (the exact variations will remain a secret for now). Vitali: “As our fans will know, in the first game, we had different Hive sub-races but they all were using the same model, and only had color variation in terms of textures. We’ll let our 3D Artist Vitali lead you in. This week we’re going to take a little look at the design behind the beloved Hivers, which we have some big plans for in Kenshi 2.
