Let's be honest /ic/. When it comes to video game flyer

SNK>>>>>>Capcom

>OP's pic

fuck im crying again, i loved this game when i was a kid

I don't get it. Why do fighting games have the most amazing art?

>>2702950
they kind of have to. You'll be looking at those characters on the screen fighting the whole time.

>>2702930
Mein negro.

CVSPro and CVS2 were one of the best fighting games to be released (I myself score higher than 3rdS and MVC2)

>>2702835
90s Capcom = 90s SNK
2000s Capcom > 2000s SNK
Capcom now <<<<<<<<<< SNK Now

>>2703075
you too ? hi there friendo

im torrenting the game right now, can't handle the nostalgia...

>>2702736
I want to like Shinkiro's artwork but something about it just seems uncanny valley to me. Always preferred Kinu's artwork in CVS2.
Maybe I'm just a weeb

>>2703595
The emphasis on both subtle form and major lines is a bit offputting, but I like it all the same.

And yeah, promotional artwork is the tits. I'll take that over concept art anyday.

Yeah, especially on his early years in SNES/SEGA Genesis covers. But I think from his early Capcom-era (CVS, Final Fight GBA, Psi-Ops) digital work, his shading is the shit. And nowadays, I like his style even better, it mixes his proportions with more Tatsunoko lines on the characters.

>>2703808
What style was he using towards the end of his SNK body? Airbrushing?

>>2702736
Can anyone please tell me how he achieves this style? I have a poster of his work on MVC3 and I just stare at it all the time.

Not Capcom, but it's /v/ related: Blizzard Entertainment has, in my opinion, very underrated concept art. If I had a working scanner, I'd post a couple of my absolute favourites, but I'll settle with the best one I could find on Google Images.

>>2704367
this is perhaps the laziest design imaginable. Seriously. Lowest hanging fruit in terms of fantasy design.

>muh triangles.

>>2704373
but it means sharp and edgy!

>>2704367
>those rocks in the bottom left corner

Why?

>>2704367

This is bait right?
Literally the worst kind of concept art imaginable.

>>2702736
I agree with you OP.
I also really love those Dragon Age Tarot Cards.

this is so bad I can feel the second-hand embarrassement

>>2704367
Out of all the fucking concept art in the world, you choose this one.

You've got to be kidding

Earthbound has some very unique concept art, too; perhaps it is concept Art that doesn't seem very impressive, until you consider the skills you'd need to replicate it or something like it.

SNK had better artist that Capcom, that pretty obvious.

>>2704899
I've looked through both of them dozens of times. Amazing stuff.

Both Dark Souls 1 and Bloodborne is on CGpeers btw

>>2704189

There was an old site that revealed that he did in fact use photoshop, so yeah it's most likely airbrush

Bump.
I've never been to this type of simplistic anime style, but for some reason, I really like Nakayama's work on Megaman Zero

>>2704367
Coming from a person who checked out a Blizzard art book, the art is cool...but the character poses are just standing looking cool. Environments are too empty.

Anyone have a PDF of pic related? I had a copy ~15 years ago, but being caught on the rain one day put an end to that.

>>2704367
I fucking hate Blizzard's designs. Everything in Warcraft is so blatantly cheesy. "Damn this armor looks ok but let me put a big fucking gemstone right in the middle of it and make it something really gaudy like purple or green"

>>2704919
that's what he said

>>2704367
Blizzard artists know how to create extremelly appealing characters, Overwatch, Warcraft and even Diablo are filled with gorgeous people stylin on the grittybrown graymud tacticool "realism" of other sci-fi and fantasy products. They also have the most appealing cartoony style in videogames ever.

But their enviroments are SHIT.

Fuck I was craving a video game artbook thread but didn't expect to find one on /ic/. is there any place where I can download vidya artbooks in a single place? I found a russian thread with a bunch of them but they're hidden between hundreds of bad how to draw books

I want to suck CAPCOM's artistic dick. I've been looking for a pdf of the latest monster hunter book but I can't find it anywhere

Always liked this one, maybe not the best looking when fully zoomed in but looks great zoomed out a bit (perhaps the hires drawing of the female slut zombie is a better example though). Always feels "clean" to me too which helps with the "I can do that too!" mindset (though I'm still far off).

King of Fighters was my game. It definitely has amazing art, and it's even more stunning that these pictures are made from scratch. Artists hand made all of the KOF characters and in KOF 13 it was obvious that they were very underrated.
Here's one of my sketches-
I tried to make a custom version of Shen Woo from KOF

Looks like these idiots don't know the difference between concept art and illustration. The image sells the idea and design and fills in the space visually for the 3d modellers, which is all it needs to do. Concept art is also made under tight deadlines but you idiots wouldn't know anything about that because you are not good enough to work in this industry. You lack both skill and personality and work ethic.

Where are you employed as a concept artist? Sounds like you're talking from real experience.
