Here’s another background 2A! created for the MyScene Beauty Studio game. First, we sketched a rough layout for the game screen, where your favorite MyScene girls sit to be made over. I felt a simple, straight forward background would create the perfect backdrop for the game play.
Final clean-up was easy for this background once the sketch was approved. We used the same colors that were already approved for the intro screen. I’m really happy with how the background turned out, and it really allows the girls to stay center of attention.

Continuing on the subject of 2A!'s work for Mattel, I thought it would be fun to share some of the hairstyles we created for Barbie’s Snip ‘n Style Salon game!
We had to create all the visuals for this game, but the most challenging was all of Barbie's hairstyles. We needed long, medium, and short versions of each style, so that took a lot of planning and organizing!
Considering how much work went into them, I'm really happy with how they all turned out. We helped make Barbie look cuter than ever! ;)

A few weeks ago I posted our background design for Mattel’s MyScene Shopping Spree game. This week I wanted to share some of the clothing we created for Barbie and the gals to wear.
The clothing was all based on the "street art" line of MyScene dolls, so that meant researching all the different toy outfits and accessories to accurately recreate them. From there it was just matching the beautifully rendered style of the illustrated girls. I used Nia as the model and feel that all of the clothing turned out pretty darn stylish.
Curious as to how the other MyScene girls look in their hip new outfits? Check them out at MyScene.com!

2A! recently worked on some updates for Mattel’s MyScene Shopping Spree game. In the game, you get to go shopping with Barbie and her friends, and choose all new outfits and accessories for the girls to wear. So, Mattel asked us to create some stylish new clothes and a new background area for the girls to strut their stuff in. This week I’ll talk about the background...
Below you can see my initial concept sketch. Mattel wanted a hip, SoHo-type art school, which has a wall filled with graffiti in front of it.
Next up is the color mock. I tried to use cooler, muted colors to fit the urban theme, while giving the area a more laid back feel. I think the overall effect is very welcoming… a place I'd want to hang out at.
Here's a look at the final background art, done in Flash by Greg Kleid. The final is pretty close to my color mock, but they did ask us to change the building from yellow to a purplish color so Barbie’s blonde hair would “pop” easily.
Along with the hip new background for the girls to chill in, we also created all new clothing (based on the toy line) for the game too! I'll post about those soon, so keep checking back. Now, why not head over to MyScene.com and try out the game for yourselves?
