Sweet Game Art Friday #1
imbeta | 7:12 PM on 06.08.2007 9 comments


NOTE: Ooops! I didn't do any of this artwork, if it sounded like I claimed credit, my apologies to the artists. Cheers.

In lieu of my awesomeness, I've decided to share art on Fridays. These blogs won't feature NEW to you art, just concept art, 8-Bit art, etc - but mostly stuff I want so just *share* - be mindful, you might have VERY likely seen it before, but since I am packaging it, you will love it even more.

BEHOLD! Art:


Metal Gear Solid
Ashley Wood's work on the IDW comic is obviously trying to recapture the art style of the MGS concept art. Which may or may not attract some people, but a lot of her pieces for the series are actually really really awesome. Here's one of that elusive cyborg ninja.


Granado Espada
This piece reminds me a lot of Underworld star, kate Bekinsale. So I honestly wonder if it was in any way/shape/form based on her. This game is Korean? Maybe... maybe it's widely known by everyone BUT me. I really don't rock RPGs that much, but this series has AMAZING arwork, I strongly suggest hitting the internets in search for further art. So awesome.


Megagirl!
I love this one! If only Megaman could get an HD remix, that paralelled the art of the new Street Fighter. Here's an example of a female lead that would look awesome. I'm not sure what it is, but it just works for me. If anybody knows who the artist is, or if he/she has a website, please let me know so I can link it!

Samus Aran
This piece is pretty sweet. Not much for me to say about it, artist is Ivan Flores @ http://crimsonjassic.com. Right click on image to "view" it, it's MUCH larger.


Fallen Valkyrie
This one isn't part of a game, but it should be! The artist is Min Yum, check out his artwork by clicking on the link. Right click on image and "view" it, it's MUCH larger.


Psyconauts
Yeah! Awesome.

Alright, this should be plenty of eye candy for now. You're welcomed!

Nice stuff. I recognise some of it... how old are you, and how long have you been working with photoshop?

I know I've seen the Samus piece before. Still blows my mind though.
Hell, all of these do.

@UglyPhil: I didn't do ANY of these, mate... sorry. I should make an edit to the piece where I say that.

@Corncobtacular: Awesome username.

I did wonder, the styles are all very diverse and most artists tend towards one style. I go for the style-infantile, it's a new wave concept that focuses on the primal, you probably haven't heard of it...

If I had one chance to pick a skill and be instantly 1337 it would have to be art. How people pull stuff like this out of the air is just amazing. I'm liking the Ninja piece particularly.
