What's the process of making the art in the game? As in, how does one phase, affect another? ???

The basic process goes from: concept/study to sketch to 2D coloured, to 3D modelled, to 3D textured.  From there they may become animated or remain as static objects.

The phases are usually sequential, meaning you can't just start from a 3D model and work forwards or backwards or you'll end up revising and revising.  During each phase of the process, the artwork is approved by a director, or reworked by the artist. :)
