Hello Stalkers!
You have already seen what Igor and Tatyana looked like in our imaginations. If you haven't had a chance to see them yet, below are links to the previous reports.

Today we're going to take a look at some supporting characters. Contrary to appearances, creating them was as big a challenge as in the case of the main characters. Take our buddy Olivier as an example.
Olivier was planned almost from the beginning as a character with a military background who mastered the art of survival in his little finger. He acquired all his knowledge while serving in the Canadian army. That's why Olivier's outfit was "tailored" with his professional background in mind.
The first sketches showed Olivier wearing a Canadian army beret (without the emblem, which he said he was not worthy of) and a flannel shirt (as befits a Canadian!). Additionally, he had a mandatory gas mask on the belt and a dog tag around the neck. And of course, Olivier's characteristic element could not be missing - a sling made of some old sheet.
Over time, of course, Olivier's outfit design evolved to what we know in the game. But in the meantime, we also tested other variants of his outfit, e.g. Olivier as a military dodger, Olivier as a tanker and... Olivier as a real Canadian citizen. Seriously, in addition to the trapper hat, we were planning to give him a bear fur coat. :D
In the end, we managed to find a consensus for Olivier’s appearance: the experienced ex-commando was dressed in the outfit of a warlord for hire. Interestingly, this is the only character that is hidden under a cape. Does that mean he has something to hide? Who knows…
That's it for today!
Take care, Stalkers!
