Tapestry box illustration timelapse

Artist Andrew Bosley created this timelapse of him illustrating the box top for Tapestry.

It's funny - I kept expecting the video to end, but then it kept going and the art got better. And then I thought it was over, but nope, even more detail. I really have a new found appreciation for what these artists do.

Impressive! So many small decisions led to this final box art. Now I appreciate it even more.

That. Was. Amazing. I'd actually love to see a slower time lapse, too, so I can get a better feel for all that detail work!

As an Artist, I LOVE seeing time-lapse videos from other Artists. Especially from one of my Heroes! So amazing.

Stunning video! A genuine delight to watch (and share with others)... 👍👍👍

Awesome. Thanks for sharing. Helps you appreciate how art is built up, tweaked and refined.

Beautiful work! I really enjoyed watching that come to life, especially the decision to change the location of the light source later in the painting. But one request from a fan: please spend some attention on spine art as well as the cover art. 99% of a box's life will be spent spine-out on the shelf. And please continue to have different orientations on different spines (like you do for Wingspan and B2Cs) for those of us who store vertically versus horizontally. I really appreciate that and would love to see similar artwork on the spine, not just a larger version of the beautiful logo. Thanks!!

Thanks for sharing that...truly fascinating. Artwork is such an important component of modern board games. It goes way beyond just the look of the game...it creates interest, draws people in and sets the atmosphere. A game with lousy look and feel rarely gets by on game play alone...the ones that get off the shelf and on to the table tend to be the ones that look great as well as play great. Really looking forward to Tapestry now.

I was already impressed, but to find out this was done on an iPad?!? Amazing. I think a skilled artist can use any tool at a professional level. I've certainly proven that it's possible to use Photoshop like an amateur! lol. Thanks so much for this video. Can't wait for the actual game!

I love this! Truly impressive to see the evolution of art infront of our eyes!
So much hard work had put into the the cover and this really shows the love and devotion Andrew and Jamey put into the face of Tapestry.
I will request in advance for all future games to have something similar~

Props to Andrew Bosley, your art is incredible and can't wait to display this game on my shelf!

Just out of interest, what program did he use to make this?

[hrtrund]

Wow! It's amazing how the details take it to the next level!
BTW how long did it actually take for this in real time?
