Justin Holt - Texture Painter

Showreel 2011 from Justin Holt on Vimeo.

Just checking out some texture examples from 3d artwork. These are a couple samples from Justin Holt's Portfolio. These days it looks crisper than real life. Insane. Better pay attention to 3d these days even for something more 2 dimensional like concept art.

This media was found here on CGSociety. You can also view his personal portfolio here.

20000 Leagues under the Sea (1916)

Amazing story adaptation of the novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea written by Jules Verne cought my eye today after taking a close look at recent science fiction art. This version has more charm than the popularized remake done by Walt Disney years later. I think science fiction and the 20's go together nicely. Don't you?

Akihiko Yoshida

Akihiko Yoshida for Final Fantasy 12. I like the detailing. I wonder if he does pen and paper or in photoshop. This is the last game I like of the series for concept art. Final Fantasy has its faults but some of the individual work done are masterpeices. This artist in particular seems to always deliver a rich lifelike character design. I rarely see this in game concept art anymore.

Check out that one faded leg! <3

Retrospective: Yoshitaka Amano

This artwork done by Yoshitaka Amano needs no writeup. He was one of the original concept artists and its a shame because I don't think I'll ever see anything so inspiring ever again.

Sterling Hundley

I've just come across a very inspiring link. His name is Sterling Hudley. If Gustav Klimt had a reincarnate, this would be the man. I love the softness and beauty of the lines. The characters are deep and wonderful. I like these modern settings under the ocean in scuba gear from the 20s. Just fantastic.
