Serving as Art Lead on the project, Kotaki – who not only has a fine last name but also worked on the first Guild Wars – has come up with some breathtaking stuff, which is a must-see for not just fans of the game, but of fantasy art in general.
You can see more of his work at his personal site, here. Guild Wars 2 is a long-in-development MMO for the PC that will hopefully be out next year.
Fine Art is a celebration of the work of video game artists.

what makes it absurd is that she has furry shoulders and boots. She’s going to have a black, frostbitten bum. sexy but *lame*.

Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 1:39 PMdefinitely my most anticipated game at the moment, those artworks look insane. although i expected nothing less really, GW concept art has always been the best in the business imho.
