Top 5 Artist Spotlights: September 2019

As the chill of Autumn settles in, we’re looking back at 5 of our favorite user projects from September 2019!

Constantin Vilsmeier – Brave Tiny Infantry

The rodent soldier in Constantin Vilsmeier’s, “Brave Tiny Infantry,” while dressed and armed for conflict, is also adorned with flowers on its helmet, cascading down its two-handed weapon, imprinted on its armor, and even printed on its sleeves. The finished image is a balance of both delicate vulnerability and strength. 

Andrea Sguanci – K11 House

Andrea Sguanci’s “K11 House,” is another example of the artist’s ability to create uncannily realistic nature scenes that are messy and detailed enough to get lost in. 

Paul Carstens – The Legend of King Arthur: ArtStation Challenge

The entries to the 2019, “The Legend of King Arthur,” ArtStation challenge spanned a spectacular range of styles. Among them, Paul Carsten’s entry really shined with its research, design, and approach to storytelling. We weren’t alone in our appreciation: Paul’s entry received an Honourable Mention in the Game Environment/Level Art category (see the challenge results here).

Cihan Ozkan – Simplicity…

We’ve featured Cihan’s work a number of times this year. Despite creating work one might label as architectural visualizations, the richly detailed environments Cihan makes are often the center of attention. Small additions, like the figure in the clearing, bring with them a subtle sense of personality that’ll have your attention lingering a moment longer than the average render. 

Jonathan Holmes – Hall of Memories

 

To create this gorgeous scene, Johnathan Holmes reflected on his vivid memories of a strip of forest behind a friend’s house in Florida, 1995. Though preserved digitally, today the strip of forest has been developed into another single-family subdivision named “Wekiva Reserve”
