This is a custom board game I designed and made as a gift to a very good friend, done over July and August.
The design and game play is taken from Candyland. The art is based off the style used in the original My Little Pony special, Rescue at Midnight Castle/Firefly’s Adventure. All art was done digitally using Sai and PS7 over the course of a month clocking in roughly 6-7 hours a day when I didn’t have work. Art was printed and adhered to a blank game board. Same goes for the spinner.
The game pieces feature four of the characters not featured on the board art, and were made with sculpey. They were hand painted with craft acrylic paints, a steady hand, with a brush and toothpick.
It is one of a kind and was a lot of planing, secret keeping, and hard work and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Special thanks to kaeferlein (kaeferlein.tumblr.com/) for being my sounding board and keeping me on track with composition.
