Contextual Influences

Fallout 3
The concept art for Fallout 3 is really great and is also one of my favorite games. The characters and monsters that they have created show how much time and effort that has been put into creating such a successful game like this. Fallout is set in the wastelands of Washington after a nuclear bombing in the year 2277

The Concept art is very very detailed and just a few of these show how much effort has gone into the creation of this game. As a gamer this has to be one of the best games made and I would recommend it to anyone else who loves gaming and role laying games.




Final Fantasy
Final Fantasy is one of my favorite Japanese role playing games it has both amazing art work and gripping storyline. Each game has a different concept to it weather its a new part of the game or a different battle system all together. The company Square Enix are always making new versions of each game they have made for different platforms comes different graphic styles like for the Nintendo DS they have childish anime and for the Xbox and PS3 they have more mature/ grown up anime graphics.

Concept Artist
Concept art is one of my favorite areas as it is the very first stage of visually designing a game. Concept artists are normally given a background story of a character and or a few features like weather they are good or bad, rich or poor, and a few other simple traits. Concept artists also design landscapes or scenes of a game and some even model them.

Keith Haring
As part of a project for doodling I was researching artists who worked in the style of doodling or that looked like doodles and I came across Keith Haring in which his pieces of work are good with bright bold lines and colours that looked like marker pen. Some of his work can be sexually orientated.
