Guild Wars Nightfall stuff

Now that over a month went by since our new game hit the shelves and the buyers of the Collector's Edition had time to enjoy the art book, we got the permission to post some concepts on the forum. I'll get the thread started and ask everybody else here at Arenanet to put up their stuff as they get here this morning.

This work is just the goddamn coolest. All of the environments are epic, but the way you handled the floating cities in the sky blows me away. Keep posting man, I love this!

I'll agree with the above posts, in particular the comment in regards to the floating cities. Truly grand.

I love the fact that you make every thing look so huge, the Egyptical inspirations. The one with the water flowing down is just so awesome, one of the favorites.

My brain hurts from looking at these.. Truely inspiring artwork. That one character with the hood and the eagle on his chest is so fucking cool... I mean yeah that sort of character has been done a gazzilion times but, you have by far executed the task far better then I have ever seen. so awesome... I cant wait to see the rest of the crew dump their madness on this thread... What a way to start a Friday...

wow. every one of these is just so epic and breathtaking. I love your sense of scale, texture, and design. really quite beautiful.

That first one is really inspirational to me all well. I'm doing my own little Egyptian story right now and when I saw it...i just fell over in awe.

Amazing work as aways man.

Joining the party

These first 2 images I created for the cover and alternate cover of the Girls of Gaming magazine. Sadly they changed their minds at the last minute.
But they did give us a 2 page spread for Guild Wars that featured work by a few of the artist posting today.






















Hope you enjoy

Aaron
