Dutch graphic/pixel artist Henk Nieborg has worked on many popular games including Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets for Gameboy Advance and Batman Begins for the PS2, Xbox and Gamecube. He helped work on Spyro: A Hero's Tail in 2004. His work included environment modeling, texturing & lighting and the frontend / HUD display. I contacted him about his work and here's what he had to say:

Quote:

At that point I worked for a company called Eurocom in Derby in the UK. I quit my job there at 2005 to start for myself again. Here's what I did on Spyro: A Hero's Tail. - Concept work for backgrounds. - Modeling, texturing and lighting of level 1B (Swamp level) - Modeling, texturing and lighting of all the Sgt. Byrd and Sparx levels. - Created the in-game HUD graphics. Some other stuff which I can't remember. :) Cheers, Henk.

Here are some of the icons he created for the HUD display.
