The Character Art of Darksiders II (new images pg 5, 6, 7)

[ambient-whisper]

Awesome work there! This project must have been super fun for you guys there. I only got the chance to work on a small part of a few of the trailers, and that was fun. So I cant imagine what a whole project must have been like There are some super fun characters on there.

Wicked work!

Thanks everyone! We are very proud of the art our character team created and are ecstatic to see that you guys enjoy seeing it!

beta_channel and spacemonkeydr - We are working on a game-res post for polycount. It will be posted after Darksiders II is released.

jutsu - Sorry about that! We tried to refrain from posting anything that hasn't already been shown in our trailers. We are a very art centric studio and love to share with the art community when we can. Oh and yes the horse turned out great. Brian King is an amazing Sculptor.

BrookeD - We do a bit of Live Streaming from time to time. You can check out a Stream of a weapon I did for the "make a Darksiders Weapon Contest" we held over at polycount.

Gareee - There will be an Art of Darksiders II book

nofounture - We primarily build blanks (base meshes) in 3dsMax and import them but we also use ZBrush creation methods as well (ZSpheres and Dynamesh for example)

joxypo, sleepyhead, and HaloAnimator - The material is actually a composite of a couple materials. I may do a demo sometime showing how I do it.


Thanks again everyone! Here is a detail image of one of the armor sets:



More to come!
