ImaginefX issue 75 | 4.12 GB
With its epic environments and warrior creature designs, we thought we d kick off our new games issue of ImagineFX by looking at the art of Guild Wars, ArenaNet s formidable fantasy computer game. Daniel Dociu, Kekai Kotaki, Kristen Perry and many more key artists tell us how they ve helped shape the Tyrian world and all its inhabitants.
From Guild Wars to Legends of Norrath and beyond, we speak to the award-winning artist Lucas Graciano on his work for the online-only trading card game, World of Warcraft and God of War. StarCraft 2 concept artist Luke Mr Jack Mancini leads a workshop in painting an epic alien battle, and Fantasy Flight Games man Igor Kieryluk takes on someone else s design concept to startling effect in his workshop.
We ve also invited Kevin Chen to design a space opera princess, Robh Ruppel turns a street into a compelling game location, and Daryl Mandryk works through a dynamic game art concept from initial sketches to finished action scene.
As if that wasn t enough, we continue our series of Painter 12's highlights, with Simon Dominic exploring its special effects, and before you check out your new favourite software and hardware releases in our reviews section, Polish artist Maciej Kuciara leads a workshop in creating lifelike cloudscapes that you ll be able to use again and again.
As well as the Q&A and news sections, the studio profile and regular reader galleries (not to mention the bucket-load of goodies on our free DVD) and you ve got another cracking issue of ImagineFX on, and hopefully in, your hands.
