This process continued until we ended up with a model that we are both satisfied with. When other designers who are also fans of Overwatch heard about this, they too came by and contributed ideas that we included in the model. After he would put it down I would pick it back up and make other refinements.
I would work on the model until I hit a challenge, Raph would then pick it up and work on it further. It was an extremely enjoyable process as we did what I call a “relay” style design, which doesn’t usually happen with a regular model. To make it special, we based the color on the Omnic Crisis Bastion E54 units and it was great to have Casper Glahder, our Graphic designer to work on an exclusive sticker for it.Īs this was an urgent model that we needed to make it in time for BlizzCon 2018, I got Raphael to help me out as he is a very experienced Design Master. As we really liked this model, we proposed it to Blizzard and fortunately they liked it too. Eventually as we started developing the 2019 sets, a dialogue between our team and Blizzard came up about making a BlizzCon exclusive set to commemorate the launch. I made a Bastion model earlier in the project as an exploration of ideas and possibilities for the project. "As huge Overwatch fans we are excited to be working on the theme, even more so working on the BlizzCon Exclusive set. Whether you get this exclusive from the Blizzard Gear Store -or at BlizzCon 2018-be sure to share any variants of Bastion and Ganymede that you or members of your community create! This also lays the groundwork for numerous challenges for the LEGO fan community to create additional variations of these characters. This set delivers Bastion and Ganymede (in the Cardinal skin) in an exclusive Omnic skin. Through their friendship Bastion was able to break its original programming and set out to explore its surroundings to discover its new purpose. Tsang even joined the LEGO Design Team in Denmark to assist with packaging design and model approval.īastion is a fan-favorite hero with a rich storyline, including its friendship with a bird named Ganymede. The Blizzard-exclusive set was designed by LEGO Designers Woon Tze and Raphaël who took inspiration directly from the art and designs of Arnold Tsang, the assistant art director for Overwatch and concept artist behind Bastion. Blizzard Entertainment is offering Overwatch fans around the world early access to the Blizzard-exclusive LEGO Overwatch Omnic Bastion set directly from their Blizzard Gear Store !
