The artists spend many hours making beautiful concepts and then they often end up in some drawer once the game ships. If we are lucky we see some of them while installing the game. I often feel this is such a waste of perfectly good art not to publish it.
Please save it and publish it in some form if the artist are okay with it, thanks!
|||I agree, if this could happen i am all for it.|||+1|||That would be awesome. +1|||Word.I'm generally not into collector's editions and I never go in for pre-orders..
But my g/f bought me the Collector's Edition Lunchbox for Fallout3 at release and it included a little concept art booklet among other things. I loved that book.
I almost always love concept art sketches, and from what I've seen of GPG's art, they're no exception. Some of their stuff is really awesome. If they wanted to do another set of pre-order bonuses (like they did for SupCom2), I'd much rather see them do something with concept art. I realize that a little book would probably be somewhat expensive to produce, but even a digital collection of the art would be a nice thing for the fans.|||I'm a fan of Art books for games myself.
Thats about 30 different artbooks xD
I'd love to Add a KnC one to it, I'd even pop down to get it signed ;p
Mike|||lol, 2x The Art of Tomb Raider.|||Maybe it's just me, but I immensely enjoy watching loading screens as games install. I think that some GPG concept art, combined with (where suitable) the "parchment" look that GPG showed us on the vlogs would really add to the anticipation.
Then again, if it's downloaded via steam, that won't matter much
|||Manjensan|||If GPG releases a worthy concept art book I would buy it. Blizzard has relentlessly released pure **** and called them concept art books when their books cover less than a quarter of the units in the game and have very little rough sketches or work.My basic concept of a good concept art gallery shows a photo of the artist and then rough renderings plus finished renderings of each of his accomplishments no matter how big or small as long as they made it into the game. Hopefully some easter eggs will be in there too for expansions and downloadable content.
I would pay 100 bucks for that.
Also, I would like GPG to ship t-shirts with the game for two reasons. It will increase the staying power value of the product, but more importantly it will provide GPG with a easy method to reach millions of customers that were unaware of their product.
The average T-Shirt is read 3000 times. The T-Shirts could have concept art on it! Would be sweet. The key is making them high quality comfortable T-Shirts and upping the cost of the box by the cost to manufacture the T-Shirts. I would assume $10. There are a billion T-Shirt companies out there and most game boxes have massive excess space in side. Even so, don't advertise the T-Shirt on the box, except in small print in the features section.
Since as far as I know GPG has never done T-Shirts I think they should start off with the basic GPG logo... kinda retro like the old Atari t-shirts.
I suppose if they just sold them on their website I would buy one that way too.|||I remember a video with CT wearing a Cybran logo shirt. I think GPG has shirts for the team, but they have never sold t-shirts to the public.|||X-Cubed|||-The-Baron-|||northwestcore|||Ion
