High-End Fantasy Game Art Creation 2011

Just finished an amazing course over at CG Workshops, taught by the great artist Katon Callaway http://www.cobracaptain.com/

The entire process took 8 weeks, starting from a Zbrush sculpt to the final game model.
This character is based on a piece of "Guild Wars" concept art by Kekai Kotaki

Just a few character doodles in photoshop. Trying to work on silhouettes and form mostly.

UDK Level Paint-overs

Using the "Floating Towers" level I had created in UDK I decided to produce a few paintovers in Photoshop.

UDK Floating Towers Level

After being inspired by "Bioshock Infinite" I decided that my second level should be a floating city. This gave me a chance to really try and push the editors lighting and fog options, as well as adding a really cool lens flare.
I took this level a little further than I intended by adding AI paths and creating a custom AI camera in "Kismet".
