PIXOLOGIC: AN EPIC INTERVIEW

January 3, 2009

Game Art Students- Take advantage of this in depth interview with EPIC games artists. I know I am. Epic Games was very generous in a recent interview with Pixologic which gives us an inside look at the ZBrush workflow some of their top notch artists used to create the world of Gears. One of the Environment Artists I have been seeing around the Polycount forums is Kevin Johnstone. If you have not seen this guys work before, it is very impressive and I wish I was at his level of expertise. You can see some of his work here in this interview as Epic was extremely generous in sharing many ZBrush screenshots for this interview. But if you get a chance, try to find some of his other work on Polycount.com. He may have some work up on CG Society too I can’t remember. Definitely worth your time if you want to be an Environment Artist like me.

For Character Artists, look no further than Chris Perna’s and Kevin Lanning’s gallery. All your favorite Gears of War characters in crazy high definition detail. Some of the screenshots make my heart skip a beat when I look at them, they’re so bad ass.
