Just saw the post about PVZ reboot. It's cool, but wish someone would at least contact me. Kinda sux. I'd be down to help with it.. whatever, I guess. Par for the course.

Yeah, I was the background artist for the original PvZ too and it felt super weird seeing all my work like redone in HD and of course I had nothing to do with it. Would've been happy to do those reworks myself 🤷🏽

Dude!! We have never met but the backgrou ds were the starting point and they are super fun! Wouldn't it have been cool for them to try getting everyone together for additional content? @Kikekun

If you sold it to them what’s the problem here?

I didn't sell them anything. I just happened to work for Popcap as an employee.

that’s so disrespectful of them, big companies never want to support their talent

Original artists deserve recognition, hope they reach out to you soon.

Well at least you helped with my mod, which at this point it got so big it’s a fangame. It wouldn’t hurt to have some extra help. Might aswell share some cool art I’ve made for the project.

That's crazy to think they didn't bring you back to redo the art and instead upscaled it. Did you hear there's a Pre order bonus consisting of a peashooter skin? I wonder what skins you might've come up with if given the chance to work on it. Thank you for your work though 🙏

yeah, when i saw it, remembering the fact that you got declined twice made this even more disrespectful (that's why i never thought they'd do it, but they did). seeing those people doing a remake without you and george fan's involvement is pretty sad (and scary), it sucks.

I would have loved to see some new plant skins like an updated peashooter to resemble the way you draw him now instead of the original.

Pleas PopCap/EA, re-hire this man for the new game, I don't care if the game is delayed because of redoing all the art. I just need to see more Rich Werner art
