Rough Concept Sketches of Rogue and Gambit Kickstarter Backer Reward

Back in February Joe posted to twitter about a Kickstarter backer sketch reward (for backing Battle Chaser's: Nightwar) that featured 90's Uncanny X-Men characters Rogue and Gambit. Today he's posted some rough concepts of the two before he decided on the final piece. It's amazing to see Joe draw these characters again after so many years.

Here's what Joe had to say on twitter:

Really no need to switch it out, just adjust your pressure. Harder or lig

First he's some early concept art for Project Skylight (Which is now Wayfinder). Next here's some marketing artwork for the game featuring the main heros (aka Wayfinders). Here's some high resolution images of the individual Wayfinders: Wingrave The Seeker Wingrave is a templar clad in spell-forged armor and sustained by his faith in the Architects. He's a natural leader and true champion, always ready to defend the innocent and to smite the forces of evil. Silo The Tactician Swift and precise, Silo makes every shot count. Born into a family of smugglers, he spent his life running under the radar and challenging tyrants. Now he's using those same skills to fight the Gloom. Silo loves long odds—the greater the challenge, the greater the thrill. Niss The Shadow Dancer Niss is kin to the shadows, and
