Check out my new SMELLY BOARD GAME!

I just got permission from the client to show these. Click on the link to see the mega size zoom on the board. It took flippin' forever to make all that stuff. All done completely in Adobe Illustrator.

Here are the character tokens/pawns whatever you want to call them.

It should be in stores in a couple months I believe.

that looks awesome. i should buy one for my niece.

tankdoneone on Sep 15 '06 at 2:09pm

thats freakin awsome. when does it go into production?

squintygirl on Sep 15 '06 at 2:10pm

I am intrigued and horrified at the same time ('Your turn... Smell this!'). I can see this game going down a few roads best left untravelled, but it actually looks like a lot of fun. The design is fantastic. Love the cricket dude!

spacesick on Sep 15 '06 at 2:10pm

oh shit that's amazing!

pilihp on Sep 15 '06 at 2:11pm

awesome stuff! congrats! i'm always amazed by your gradients.

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:11pm

there we go, I got the big version link working, I know they've already started production and that's how I got permission to show it. I don't know when it actually hits the big stores though. I did it at the beginning of the year.

Ste7en on Sep 15 '06 at 2:14pm

thats some of the greatest shit (pun intended) that I have ever seen

Thickblueink on Sep 15 '06 at 2:14pm

that's pretty pretty cool.

Torakamikaze on Sep 15 '06 at 2:17pm

i am amazed

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:18pm

haha, thanks guys. Yeah the concept is that kids move around the board and if they land on a "smell spot" they draw a card, scratch it, and try to guess what the smell is. There are good, bad, and mystery smells. I'm not quite sure what mystery smells are, haha. I just draw the pictures, they add the smells.

MadTheologian on Sep 15 '06 at 2:24pm

That looks wonderful, Rockslide! Congrats on your board game!

lenabeana on Sep 15 '06 at 2:25pm

that looks really cool

but does anything smell good? it looks like it all smells like animals covered in garbage!

squintygirl on Sep 15 '06 at 2:25pm

If this game was around when I was a kid, my cousins would have immediately made a hundred mystery smell cards. None of them very pleasant. :)

Jewstice on Sep 15 '06 at 2:27pm

Hah, looks like fun.

jublin on Sep 15 '06 at 2:34pm

this is the big project you've been working on for a while right? it looks incredible man! you are the king!

mezo on Sep 15 '06 at 2:38pm

Let's play!!

I want to be the grasshopper with the bloddy fisting fists!

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:39pm

this project did take a while but I finished it a couple months ago. My latest jobs were doing a Dinosaur Valentine Card set for PMG and some concept art for some Fox cartoon pitches.

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:41pm

haha, mezo always makes me laugh. Those fists have been bloodied by some preppy who smelled good, probably a poodle or a house cat. And he's supposed to be a stink bug, c'mon he looks just like one, don't you know your smelly animals?

mezo on Sep 15 '06 at 2:41pm

That's some real intricate stuff on this game, Rock. I had no idea you were such a "professional"!! But why, pray tell, do I spy Comic Sans?

squintygirl on Sep 15 '06 at 2:42pm

Sorry for calling the stink bug a cricket. I like him even more, now.

Maybe his fists are bloody from making armpit farts all day.

mezo on Sep 15 '06 at 2:44pm

OH! Armpit farts!

*pfrrrpt

jublin on Sep 15 '06 at 2:45pm

uh ohhh busted!

i call the hobo raccoon!

jublin on Sep 15 '06 at 2:46pm

concept art for fox cartoon pitches!? oh nuts you have to spill the beans!

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:47pm

crap! it is comic sans, I know, but the client! they made me do it, holy crap, all the things I have to do for all my clients, haha. I love the "improves cognitive skills of kids" haha. That makes me laugh all the time. Technically, flipping a light switch on and off will improve a kid's cognitive skills too.

helladelightful on Sep 15 '06 at 2:47pm

mmm smelly things!

dude that looks really awesome, great work!

starr226 on Sep 15 '06 at 2:50pm

rocky, I am tres impressed. so impressed i threw in ONE french word to emphasize it.

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 2:51pm

I can't show the concept art yet. It is for a company that is pitching ideas to Fox, so its not like actual Fox cartoon stuff, although that would really be cool if it did get picked up. I want to show the dino cards, they turned out really cool. I think I have to wait another couple months though.

little g on Sep 15 '06 at 2:54pm

Clients are the devil! This is an amazing peice of work!! I hope you got paid well for it. It looks like quite a project. Amazing!

fc gravy on Sep 15 '06 at 2:55pm

cool! that looked fun to wrk on.

jublin on Sep 15 '06 at 2:57pm

wooowwwie i just checked out your site for the first time. i didn't realize it was up and running.

i pretty much passed out about a million times while looking at all of your work.

mezo on Sep 15 '06 at 2:58pm

LIES!!! ALL LIES!!! YOU LOVE FOX AND COMIC SANS.

iotadial on Sep 15 '06 at 3:08pm

wow, that is crazy skills on that there. game looks like tons of fun, hope i get to play it.

palosv377 on Sep 15 '06 at 3:09pm

holy crap I don't think I can wait a couple months
that is the shit

Rockslide on Sep 15 '06 at 4:49pm

I think the client is sending me a couple copies of it, maybe I'll have to do a contest for a copy of it or something. It would be a nerdy challenge though, like identifying a handful of random toys.

Thanks Jublin! Yes the new site is up and running (mostly)
Visit it NOW!

palosv377 on Sep 15 '06 at 4:58pm

I think I'd go into indentured servitude for this game

abeadle on Sep 16 '06 at 10:36am

WOW!!! This is probably one of the coolest projects possibly imaginable. Nice job.

adam antium on Sep 16 '06 at 10:40am

man, congrats! OMG! that looks awesome!

WallsReallyWork on Sep 16 '06 at 10:42am

dude, nice. that is awesome

staffell on Sep 16 '06 at 10:42am

fuck me, that's incredible

lovesushi on Sep 16 '06 at 10:46am

Wow that looks amazing! When I was younger I loved boardgames with a gimmick to them... I used to have this one called 'splat' or somethign that involved making plasticine bugs and splatting them. Like moustrap, it was one of those games that takes forever to set up and then is all over in about 5 minutes!

Aah, good times.

NatySpaghetti on Sep 16 '06 at 10:46am

Holy crap thats a lot of work!! WOW! amazing

whylime on Sep 16 '06 at 10:48am

wow - I was beginning to think that fun new board games were a thing of the past - this one looks awesome!

whylime on Sep 16 '06 at 10:48am

lovesushi - splat was my fav. game too along with grape escape

abeadle on Sep 16 '06 at 10:48am

I think I like the STINKY maze the best...but its all so good.

ir0cko on Sep 16 '06 at 10:49am

whoa! looks cool

adam antium on Sep 16 '06 at 10:50am

i love the skunk carousel and stinky factory, but ALL is a huge, amazing work!

lovesushi on Sep 16 '06 at 10:50am

Haha grape escape, rock on!

lovesushi on Sep 16 '06 at 10:52am

I had another interactive one actually, it was 'hide and seek' and it was basically a childrens play park that you had to hide your pieces under for some reason, e.g the blue piece would be under the see-saw... my parents must have really been into this 'improves cognitive skills' theory!
