Hello Lonarian Guards!
![Cool 8)](http://infamous-quests.com/forum/Smileys/default/cool.gif)
Jason (aka Lambonius) here, introducing the first of our elite backer behind the scenes development series! In this thread, I will be designing and posting WIPs of the next background on my To Do List. This scene is from the Grass Plains region of the Krasna Valley, an area that has been as yet unseen in the current demos, but will feature prominently in the full game. This area of the game world has pretty much been my baby, and with input from Steve (Blackthorne) and Jeremy (Jerminator,) I've been designing, sketching, and painting it for the past several months (with breaks here and there to work on other, more pressing areas.)
The sketch attached below is an early concept for an abandoned homestead, one of several small architectural features that dot the plains. A number of design changes have been made to the overall area since this sketch was made, and as such, I will be redrawing a new version from scratch to incorporate those changes. I expect to post the new version later tonight, once I get a chance to sit down and flesh it out.
We'd like to invite you elite Lonarian Guards to offer any feedback you like--critiques, suggestions for content additions, etc., and just in general to be a part of the process of conversation that happens around the design of any given background in our game. Don't be shy; I'm open to anything you have to say, both positive and negative, and would love to be able to incorporate some of your ideas in the screen, provided they still fit with what we have in mind for the scene.

It's all for the purposes of creating a more interesting and attractive gaming experience!
We hope to make this a recurring series, with work from our other artists appearing in the future. So check back often!
