Interesting how people are posting up the art tests to their personal websites when the things are supposed to be NDA'd. I'll have to make sure this gets outlined more thoroughly.
Regardless of that, yeah, Myles decided to go work for Blitz in the end. His test is the benchmark now really as far as new applicants go, definitely the best we've had so far. As for John i think i was the guy that got the job instead of him in feb '11 although i can't be certain.
Funny thing about that thread you just linked lloyd, that was actually my first art test. While it'd probably seem normal for me to be butthurt about the comments i actually thought it's was pretty terrible before you lot

But.. saying that.. it's less than a weeks worth of work, so i can't be too hard on myself.
As far as "pre-prod" goes I guess it is pre-prod in the sense that it's the first time i acquainted myself with the oddworld style, but not in the true sense of "this will actually be in the game". I'm almost completely sure all the files for that scene have since been deleted to make room for vidyagames.
