I decided to write a blog postto silence the rare but existing gossips saying I useopen-sourcebecause I'm .... ... a poor artist (¬_¬)
It's wrong :I use open-sourcesince 2009as apersonal choice. Let me tell you, 'how'/'why' it happens. ( and sorry in advance for my english )

15 may 2013 notes : Due to change in VC ( a lib for Krita ) the script will not work to compile Krita for the moment. I'll fix this soon. Read the last comments for a workaround.

Heroes from the Past: Joan of Arc is a puzzles/match 3 game produced by Green Sauce Games.
My work in this project was
mainly to produce some of the games backgrounds for levels ( night and day version ) , startup screens ( Joan with the flag ) and a cinematic with still picture as a game intro. The game contain epic landscapes with high colors and details, castles and waterfalls with various ambiants.
I used the same technic as I did on the previous video game with the team : Dreams of a Geisha ( blog post with makingof step ). A lot of other Gfx you can see on the video ( as the village construction, icons , Fx and game GUI ) were done by other talentuous artists. You can
find their name in the credit of the game or by contacting Green Sauce Games .
The game is actually ready to download on Big Fish here for Windows XP/Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows and Mac. The Big Fish page also contain another video presentation with other artworks.
