(We were unable to get rights clearances for a few of them…) Japanese gamers will get a chance to see art that we’ve only released in the West (which there were quite a few we made behind the scenes), as well as peeks at unreleased character, enemy, background, and weapon designs. There will also be CG illustrations and some new easter-egg illustrations (that I’m working on right now) amongst others. Overall, there will be more than 500 pieces of content to sink your teeth into! There will also be tons of comments from the development team (which they are working on now) to round out this monster collection! Look forward to it! Whenever I end up working on one of these expansive books, I always end up feeling like, “This is sad. I have to show off all of these designs that got shot down… And they are from years ago as well.” Even though I love looking at others people’s stuff… this poses a real dilemna for me. Well, enough of my grumbling, I’m going to stay focused on working on the book for now, and even though it will be a while until it is in your hands, I hope you all look forward to it. Well, I guess the world is all wrapped up in Christmas colors now. How did you all spend the Christmas holidays? December 25 was actually our last work day here at PlatinumGames, but I am sure plenty of us went out drinking after we wrapped up. Until next time. ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2010/01/07/announcing-a-bit-early-a-collection-of-bayonetta-design-artifacts/feed/ 14 shimakom b_illust_Xmas http://platinumgames.com/2009/10/25/designing-bayonetta-4-%e2%80%93-luka-and-a-special-mtvbayonetta-announcement/ http://platinumgames.com/2009/10/25/designing-bayonetta-4-%e2%80%93-luka-and-a-special-mtvbayonetta-announcement/#comments Sun, 25 Oct 2009 05:29:25 +0000 Mari Shimazaki http://platinumgames.com/?p=1938 ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2009/10/25/designing-bayonetta-4-%e2%80%93-luka-and-a-special-mtvbayonetta-announcement/feed/ 9 shimakom Luka_front Luka_back http://platinumgames.com/2009/09/25/bayonetta-tgs-consoles-and-photo-collection/ http://platinumgames.com/2009/09/25/bayonetta-tgs-consoles-and-photo-collection/#comments Fri, 25 Sep 2009 06:19:54 +0000 Mari Shimazaki http://platinumgames.com/?p=1862 ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2009/09/25/bayonetta-tgs-consoles-and-photo-collection/feed/ 17 shimakom b_360_01 blog_B_wov http://platinumgames.com/2009/08/21/designing-bayonetta-part-3-rodin-and-enzo/ http://platinumgames.com/2009/08/21/designing-bayonetta-part-3-rodin-and-enzo/#comments Fri, 21 Aug 2009 03:04:04 +0000 Mari Shimazaki http://platinumgames.wordpress.com/?p=1786 ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2009/08/21/designing-bayonetta-part-3-rodin-and-enzo/feed/ 9 shimakom cc_s_photo01 rodin01 rodin02 enzo01 enzo02 cc_s_photo02 http://platinumgames.com/2009/06/26/designing-bayonetta-part-2-jeanne/ http://platinumgames.com/2009/06/26/designing-bayonetta-part-2-jeanne/#comments Fri, 26 Jun 2009 09:01:47 +0000 Mari Shimazaki http://platinumgames.com/?p=1520 ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2009/06/26/designing-bayonetta-part-2-jeanne/feed/ 36 shimakom jeanne_front jeanne_back jeanne_back_embro jeanne_face jeanne_raku http://platinumgames.com/2009/04/17/designing-bayonetta/ http://platinumgames.com/2009/04/17/designing-bayonetta/#comments Thu, 16 Apr 2009 15:46:24 +0000 Mari Shimazaki http://platinumgames.com/?p=1278 ]]> http://platinumgames.com/2009/04/17/designing-bayonetta/feed/ 43 shimakom 1_bayonetta00 2_bayonetta01 3_bayonetta02 4_bayonetta03
