Age of Conan - Hyborian Adventures concept art //last page update 09. July 2008//

[unit]

Hey people, a very long time and all that.

I've got to say I'm thoroughly impressed with the quality of work here nowadays - the quality bar seems to be raised every time I visit. Me? I've haven't been actively involved on forums for a while as I've been pretty busy with Age of Conan - Hyborian Adventures. Myself and the guys on the project plan to reveal just some of what we've worked in the coming months.

cheers

Here's a really small sample of my work to begin with:

Keep em coming, this is the reason I come to conceptart.org. To see great concept art. First Guildwars, then the Massive Black stuff, now Naruto, then Call of Duty, and now Conan. WOW!

[cubesoflard]

Wow, nice designs. Thanks for sharing.

[Twitch.]

Wonderful mate. ABSOLUTELY love the style you're work is a true inspiration

[El Jeremie]

The conan concept are very good, and the matte is brilliant.
Keep posting.

[Moai]

Your figures could use more study, but that environment is fantastic. The architecture is great, the lighting is excellent, and somehow you've gotten me to really feel that place, hear its sounds, etc. So, great job with that one. Post more enviros!

[unit]

Thanks for the critiques and feedback.

Another environment it is then. This time a 5-6 hour study for the lighthouses to the harbour of Khemi.

[Alex Tornberg]

Here are some Armor concepts I've done for the game. Hopefully we'll get some of the other guys to post their stuff also and keep this thread getting updated until the release of the game...

[OYO!]

F****n hell !! The Scorpion archer concept is insanely brilliant !!! ahahah !! inspirationnal thread !!

[MurdokX]

Strong Enviros. the archer concept is awesome. Figures might need some work on.

Inspired. Thanks!!

[unit]

Thanks guys for the feedback, both positive and constructive.

As to the anatomy of my armour designs, despite years of life-drawing classes, it still happens to be my greatest weakness and I can as easily nail it as not. Also I keep insisting on not using photo reference when mocking up my figures.

Anyway, we'll try show some more work - updating periodically, and perhaps we can convince our esteemed but reticent Art Director to post as well.

Somewhere in the of 3 thousand individual concepts (there are gigs and gigs of the stuff) have been created for this game over 2 and half years, a lot of it done quickly and more for internal purposes than anything we'd want to show off here - solid ideas but executed on the fly ; )

cheers!

Sweet, those primitives warriors are awesome.
Looks like a mix the Skull island people and the massa&#239; warriors, but more creepy
