Grim’s End – Proof Of Concept Trailer

Nixin created an amazing PoC video with cell shaded characters.

Deep in the bowels of the Howling Woods, where the snow never stops and wicked winds tirelessly whistle their tunes of death, rests an inn named Grim’s End. A dark and lonely place reserved for the dead. It appears to be a welcome refuge from the storm, but in truth acts as bait luring in lost souls with its promise of shelter. This shelter is leverage to trick the lost and weary into signing their lives away to some invisible force for reasons unknown to any soul involved.

For Hilde, facing the reaper at Grim’s End is unpleasant but it’s the paperwork that really makes her wish she was dead.

I made the models of our two principal characters for this small project and It was all made in Blender. We used a combination of hand drawn grease pencil lines along with the outline modifier for the silhouettes.
