Today’s daily inspiration is game concept art.

Game concept art

Has got to be one of the best and absolutely the coolest kind of art around. Being a guy I obviously love video games anyway so when you see a game cover with great game concept art, that will draw me straight over!

When I was younger my dream was to be a game artist, At that time though, concept art and computer art wasn’t around! Photoshop 1 had just come out when I started my third year of studies. (I’m not that old btw, 34, but internet wasn’t about while I was in my teens!)

I studied Art at college and realised one afternoon after having a long conversation with my very poor art teacher (and he was the most amazing artist I have ever seen!) that unless I wanted to be broke forever I had better chose a different career. Because of that conversation and my love of art I went on to become a designer, But my true love still lies in art.

Now I spend a lot of my spare time drawing in Photoshop and enjoying drawing in general. Game art and concept art is mainly used in movies and video games, the artist have to create fantasy worlds and characters that are not only beautiful but also believable! These artists come up with concepts in a number of different ways often awesome before being taken to final renders to create the most stunning art around. This collection of works do just that!

Enjoy this game concept art.
