Art's Art Plays a P3 Part (December 5, 2010)

[AD]

Art Wong is a digital artist that worked on several Origin games. Mr. Wong worked on Ultima 9: Ascension and Wing Commander Prophecy among others. He also created designs for some of Origin's most famously canceled games such as Ultima Online 2 and Privateer 3.

You can see samples of the work on unreleased Origin games at his portfolio blog. Note the Privateer 3 piece to the right. There's some interesting angles on some of the ships seen before in concept art. Check out the awesome ship/faction insignias as well.

I think the top two skybox concepts are interesting... I assume they're for background when walking around planetary installations, though just maybe there was some atmospheric combat planned.

I don't know of any plans for atmospheric missions (this project is actually *really* well documented in our archives). I think they were the backgrounds for the planet gameflow screens, which were to be somewhat dynamic (like the bartender faces in Priv 1--you'd have a number of backgrounds and a number of foregrounds and then the game would mix and match them to create lots of locations).
