So now is as good a time as any to look at some of the gorgeous concept art for Deus Ex: Human Revolution, no?
The following character concepts and environment pieces were drawn by various artists and at various stages of the game’s production.
Artists responsible include Jim Murray, Brian Dugan, Theirry Doizon (who we’ve featured here before), Trong Nguyen and Sébastien Larroudé, while the lion’s share of pieces in this gallery were drawn by Richard Dumont and Eric Gagnon.
Fine Art is a celebration of the work of video game artists.

(Though the random Bush joke in the police station still seems out-of-place to me)

Awesome concept art though, it really shows in the game.

Friday, September 2, 2011 at 2:23 PMThis game clearly had a vision from the start. It seems all the good games have such an awseome production flow. Strong story, strong concept art and design, and strong final product. Deus Ex: HR i will put up there with Uncharted for one of the best next gen games in the last four years.
