  1. This guy… has my dream job…
    But it looks so hard and time consuming. I’m not that great at drawing yet- hell, I can’t even draw something like IronMan without making all the metal pieces look like crap and disformed. I suck at making things like that. I wish this guy was my art tutor. xD;;;

  2. thumbs up if you hate the new toolbar

  3. @SuPAdUpa132 No it (for the most part) does not require math. But I am sure that there is some a point and time that you do, but that might be for certain types of art. It all about the pencil miles, you just gotta draw draw draw draw :D

  4. @Tea42formenyou i always think about art I LOVE IT! :D

  5. does being a concept artist require alot of mathematics?

  6. Why didn’t they put all those helmet designs in the game? There’s LOADS of drawings there but in the game theres only like ten. Including the simple visors and downloaded stuff.

  7. I want this job position so much!

  8. @Eagle4Delta AGREED!!!! And the helmets all kind of look alike! How the hell does he keeps going without repeating a previously done one after like 50 helmets…!?

  9. @Denolc i do. if i play a game i always think: this is a piece of art. only if its a good one. i always search for concpet art and such

  10. look at all the helmets they thrown away!shit

  11. Is it possible for me to be a part time concept artist?

  12. @SuPAdUpa132 you need to be able to convey a visual representation of a design and/or mood for use in games,comic books etc. While it is necessary to have the skills of a fine artist, you must be able to work to strict deadlines. Interpretation of ideas and how they are realised is one area you’ll be judged on, and subject matter is often beyond their control

  13. @SuPAdUpa132 lol draw a lot till you can draw well, you have to spend like every waking moment thinking about art!

  14. @SuPAdUpa132 you need to create a portfolio with the best of your work, and then just apply to gamedev companies and hope they notice you. well, and you have to be awesome at drawing i guess

  15. @Denolc youtube needs a ” 1000 thumbs up button”

  16. @SuPAdUpa132 dude if you get an answer let me know.. i really want to be a concept artist too

  17. I have this game.
    Just love it.

  18. 200 helmets… Dude where do you get your inspiration? Respect! That is skill! Well done!

  19. This game is amazing but it has alot of bugs… i always run into a bug which let me running in the air.. i can not come back to the floor and can not even run … just stuck in the air >.<

  20. omg O_O! why they didnt include more armor/helmets variats :(

  21. what do you need to become a concept artist?

  22. so many helmet designs yet so few actually in game for you to play around with o_O

  23. Now that is some amazing creativity and atr skills at work =)

  24. @EyeOnTheTV i kind of agree, but then again i just love this game and the first one so much, that i forget about it :D

  25. Of all of the iterations a helmets, they picked the silliest one for the DeathMask helmet. I wished they had put more of those concept helmets into the game to have more variation other than the N7 open and re-breather variant plus the dumb visor which I could have designed better.
