1986 Stephen Bliss Started worked as an in house designer and artist at fashion company for Burton Snowboards, BMG Records, Sony, Nintendo, Pepsi, MTV, Aardman Animation, Jim Henson’s Creature Shop and painted the album/ CD cover for Massive Attack. He is currently senior Artist at Rockstar Games, NYC and has worked on The Warriors, Bully, Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto videos games. On the Vice City Stories cover Stephen Bliss added rounded edges on the box frames which suggests the 80s and distinguishes the cover from the previous GTA games, the colors were more pastel than GTA3, and the characters are more detailed less caricatured. With the other GTA games, such as San Andreas takes the flat color of the previous styles but there’s lighting on one side and reflective lighting on the other to make it more dimensional, there’s also a kind of blended paint style on the lighted side. The cover styles get more painterly as the series evolves GTA4 is completely painterly with no outline
