Adding Backgrounds to the Levels

After completing the concept art designs for the game levels i knew that they were missing the background image and that had been because i wanted to produce that separate and save time as this background image would be used within the scene of the game level. So i started to develop a basic layout of the games background and because i didn't want to take the attention away from the viewer of the actual game level i didn't go into detail. The design of the background was all down to just creating that ice covered fridge interior where the fridge has been freezing and producing ice because Ned Bunsem had lowered the temperature to keep the food landmarks intact and also within the icy fridge interior you would see bits of food and also because this is an image for the back of the level an area which wouldn't fully be seen i was able to save much more time in re-using the image and just adding new pieces of food or changing bits around to create a difference between the images. Below are the backgrounds on the left and their use in the scene of the level on the right and i feel it goes well with the level layout not really taking away from the level but also adding an interest as it captures some attention.
