Blame the walking sims the hat fail to grasp people. Firewatch was atrocious.
I don't think this game is a walking simulator but if it would be I think it would still be fitting. They have that whole Blame! atmosphere going on where the world is desolate except for some NPC's and the occasional settlement.
Walking simulators aren't bad if they're actually used in an interesting concept or world like this. They just got a shit rep due to lazy devs using them as a cop out for actually doing something noteworthy. Personally I'd love more walking sims about stuff like being a detective.

I mean, there's not much of an argument to be had, as only Kaneko can say.

It's not about intrigue. The dick imagery is always central to the lore of any given dick demon in an SMT game

Just give me a fucking minute you dicks. I'm a professional concept artist and art director, Giger is one of my all time favorite artist. I know my shit.
There are some key fucking changes I would make to this design. One, the arms look stupid. They just don't carry any design elements from the rest of the character (layered, repeating lines like the muscle tissue and spine cage)
The ass looks stupid, as well as the lower back. It doesn't look like it would move properly at all. There is a reason humans have ass cheeks. Secondly, it's too smooth and broad. As in, the shapes are large and simple which draws your eyes to that section of the design since it's the only area like that.
the hands needs more design elements from the rest of the character. Muscle tissue, mostly.
The design of the thigh, hip areas don't match the rest of the design. Again, it's just a random design element not repeated in the character (but is repeated in the gun's design). This is a simple fix, place those kind of hard, angular shells on the shoulders, ass, and arms. Just more unification of the design.
The entire face needs to be redesigned. It looks far too cartoony and simplified to the rest of the game. Two little lights as the eyes behind membranes is a neat-ish idea but needs to be executed better.
And now I paint.
>>343741881
well yeah he's an alien

Think whatever you want, but anything you see wrong with it is insignificant enough that most of us don't give a shit.
>>343739504
That doesn't look like Giger, more like Beksinski/generic sci-fi FPS thing
>>343743093
You should email them your critique why waste all that time writing a post here when it would be far more useful for the devs.
>>343743273
I want to add one little huge difference in this concept art/game's art and Giger's art.
Giger is all about biomechanical looking shit. Every "character" in this game just looks... too biological. Like the main character. He doesn't have any of the elements of the environments which look like straight giger rip offs. With black steel melded with bone and sinew. The MC looks 100% biological like an insect. The gun is the same way, it just looks biological bone, tendons, sinew, ect. The only "mechanical" pieces are the drilled holes in his back.
I would like it a lot more if the character looked like the rest of the world. More mechanical.
Lastly, the eyes of the characters look so fake and cartoony because it looks like they have flashlights stuck in their heads. It makes them look like puppets. Which is a pretty cool style in its own (like say, a tool video) but looks off in this game's world because they don't look like they were suppose to be puppets.
Whats that animation some guy did that took him fucking years to do. It was stop motion, everything looked like creepy tool puppets, about humans no longer being able to breed so they go looking for a creature that had balls and a dick deep within the earth.
....
It was awesome. That's how you make a creepy as fuck unified style.

>Giger is all about biomechanical looking shit. Every "character" in this game just looks... too biological.
Biology IS mechanical you fuckwad. You are nitpicking because you don't want to like the game.
>>343744213
No it's organic
>>343744213
This is idiotic. You can argue whether a human is a machine but in giger art theres clearly a fusion between biological tissue and metal machines. why are you being so obtuse?
>>343744334
There is fusion between the two and that's how its presented in the game you fucking twat.
The hand is a gun, the walls are alive, a heart powers the machine.
You are crying for no reason. Both the biological aspect and the mechanical aspects are there.
>>343744107
Yo okay, fuck whatever you were talking about before, I need some sauce for that dick and ball demon video you mentioned
>>343744107
What's that animation, I'm interested
>>343744213
congrats, you're literally retarded.
Also I like the game. I just don't like the MC and some of the other "creatures" designs. The changes I'm talking about would be minor but help a lot for the visuals.
The MC has more in common with Davy Jones from PiotC than it does with Giger. Meanwhile the environment is 100% Giger.

Have you seen the difference between the xenomorph in Alien 1 and the one in Alien Resurrection ?
One is designed by Giger, the other is organic. The difference is clear. This doesn't look like something Giger-inspired. Which I don't mind since they're obviously also inspired by Beksinski

>>343744719
But we're talking literally aesthetics, not a metaphoric machine. You can twist it however you want, Giger's style can't be separated from metallic mechanical elements.
>>343744107
Why do they have to be unified?
There is a chance the player character is not native to the game's locale, and thus not a product of the same technology.

>>343743530
>Beksinski
>generic sci-fi
It looks like neither. It looks like someone tried to design a Giger imitation but forgot the mechanical components halfway through. Beksinski has no mechanical components to characters, they're usually skeletal or with deathly and diseased imagery tied to them, like the endless knotted knuckles and fingers everywhere, or emaciated rib cages showing through dried skin. He was more into environments, the characters in his works were less characters and more walking elements of that environment, like an extension of their surroundings given the faintest grasp of life and damned to roam.
There's nothing like that in that design. Yeah there's weird spine looking shit on his back but it's not organic, it's rather metallic and mechanical. It juts off the character instead of scraping against the surface from within.
Dev here, You're all wrong and i think you are very gay bois.
This is now a Mike Dawson thread
>>343745394
As someone who works in the games industry (not the concept artist anon) I can tell you it matters immensely

The MC design is not a tiny detail and it is cartoony. Just the silhouette itself it's terrible at the beginning.
Game lacked any gameplay whatsoever as well. When will the meme of showing no gameplay will ever end?
>>343744943
>>343744852
>>343744681
See, I just don't think beksinski and giger's style work well together. At least the way they did it in this game. Beksi looks far too rustic and biological. The "webbing" and designs of his work are the opposite of Giger. Giger loves smooth surfaces that are very symmetrical or repeating while Beksinski is more organic and random. A type of chaos that still maintains pattern.
I like Scorn for the most part. The artists could have done a better job combining the two together though.
This is what happens when you become an artist. See something neat, you think "I want to paint that" but at the same time you can't help but deconstruct works of others. What makes a movie, game, painting, whatever work and how can it be improved upon.
>>343745718
All of your arguments so far are only there to stir shit and dodge the point. What's your goal exactly?
>>343745718
That's not really a biomechanical thing in anywhere near the same sense Giger approaches his work.
And I mistyped, he has little to no mechanical components. I recall at least one besides your pic that might have had a sort of biomechanical element but his work was predominantly NOT that by any stretch of the imagination.
>>343745868
>Game lacked any gameplay whatsoever as well.

how the fuck is that mechanical? It just looks like spider legs on a bathtub. That's not mechanical like Giger at fucking all. Beksinski is more about stone, concrete, rock, shit like that covered in bone, tendons, sinew, excretions.
>>343746025

>>343743093
>The ass looks stupid, as well as the lower back. It doesn't look like it would move properly at all. There is a reason humans have ass cheeks.
I absolutely agree with this.
What >>343743885 proposed isn't a bad idea, actually.
>>343746025
>Beksinski is more about stone, concrete, rock, shit like that covered in bone, tendons, sinew, excretions.
Beksinski is about textures you inbred fuck.
>>343743093
ITS SUPPOSE TO LOOK LIKE A PERSON WEARING A SUIT YOU STUPID SHIT.
>>343746025
They are similar, but are different enough that the devs should have put more thought into how they were combined.
It's been a long time since I have done a piece inspired by giger or beksinski so I'm a bit ehhhh on posting my own work (as I'm inspired more by art deco, east asian, fashion work) but Giger, Escher, Jean Gabriel Domergue are some of my favs.
>>343746214

>>343746309
I think its in your fucking head and I disagree.
>>343745873
It looks much more predominantly Giger over Beksinski though there is some Beksinski and even Wayne Barlowe in there. The footage is definitely more Giger-esque though, it's much more focused on biomechanical elements over rusted out skeletal landscapes or demonic hellscapes.
It doesn't quite work though in my opinion either, I think it sort of looks like a cheap imitation. It's designed to be like you're exploring a Giger painting and that seems to be the entire and solitary point. Whereas Giger was so focused on his own psyche and sexuality, this doesn't seem to explore any of that beyond the pure biomechanical aspect. Maybe a bit of the rapey stuff but it doesn't seem to be in the forefront like in Giger's work.
I'm sure it'll be spooky and atmospheric and have some really neat places to see and walk around in but it doesn't feel very true to either of those artists' visions, I'm not sure the dev team fully "gets" the underlying tension and horror of Giger's themes. Of course we've only seen just a tiny amount of the game so who knows I could be entirely off base here, I just don't get that vibe yet.
>>343746093
"a vehicle with legs"
No, it doesn't. It looks like a bathtub that grew spider legs.
That is not machinery you stupid fuck. Not in the way of context. Biological machinery, aka our bodies, is not Giger-esque.
Ah fuck it you're too stupid to tell the difference.

It's definitely a lighting issue at least with the design of the face. It's alright in the concept art but it gets cartoony in game.

>psyche and sexuality, this doesn't seem to explore any of that beyond the pure biomechanical aspect. Maybe a bit of the rapey stuff but it doesn't seem to be in the forefront like in Giger's work.
This is exactly what's wrong with it. The devs took a bunch of shit they thought "looked cool" without any actual respect to the source material.
I have already mentioned the aspects that don't blend together but those are only symptoms of a larger issue. It's a shallow copy and I don't think the devs understand what makes both artists' work so good. It really does look like they thought "Hey, giger and beksinski look cool right?" and lazily slapped that aesthetic poorly into the game.
Again, individually the designs are neat. As an overall package they don't go together at fucking all. The levels they show in here lack any of the amazing compositions of giger/beksinski paintings have.
>>343746683
Well, shit MC designs or not I hope this game does well and not only has an interesting setting but interesting gameplay mechanics. Like petting and feeding your gun.
>>343743093
>
thats a whole lot of assumption you are making, particularly as we know nothing about the background of this design choice.
im willing to bet its based on a number of individual paintings /pictures , rather than a whole style like people assume.
also if what you make is as disappointing as i assume it will be we are going to laugh you the fuck outta here. especially with that cocky ass attitude of yours.

>The levels they show in here lack any of the amazing compositions of giger/beksinski paintings have.
True, a lot of power from their works come from their actual, set compositions as well, something a game can't replicate unless it's strictly on rails or a cutscene.
I think that EYE still is the best representation of Beksinski in a game, not because it took his style or anything but reinterpreted some of his pieces within the context of the game itself. It sure as hell doesn't look like his work though there are many references, however it seems to, on some level, get what he was going for and successfully reinterpreted that in new context dealing with the game's own themes. f
This is just a copy, a misshapen little abortion of visuals crunched together because it looks really neat but carries no thematic power like the source material it's inspired by. I'm not even calling it a bad game or anything, the art direction just looks really shallow. Not even lazy because that sure as hell wouldn't have been easy to model and design, but it ironically lacks any life to it.
Shame too, I'd love an actual heady horror game exploring actually terrifying, fucked up themes like those artists.
>>343747136
have you even played the resident evil 7 prologue?
As with most beautiful games (and particularly indie), if you don't have a competent enough dev that wants to focus on gameplay, they will just fall in love with their props and scenarios and make entire empty rooms full of nothing, just walking around, forcing the player to take in the environment, instead of focusing on gameplay around beautifully designed sets.
It's the problem with good props, it's like in those cheap horror movies where the director just can't help himself showing the monster prop over and over in perfect lighting just because he's so in love with the artistry and craftsmanship behind it. When instead you're not supposed to ever have a good luck at the monster, it only cheapens the spooks when you get a good luck and can perfectly make out that it's just a toy, it's supposed to be obscured in shadows most of the time if you want your brain to be tricked by it.
Calling it now, you just know this shit is going to happen, it's going to rely on the atmosphere too much and the gameplay will be almost disregarded. I mean really looking at this video does it look like they even have any idea of what they want to do with the game despite crafting beautiful scenarios? It's going to be key puzzles and unlocking more rooms with beautiful scenery, sometimes shoot a blob monster with an existenz gun. And reviews will praise it for it, they'll say it's revolutionary.
But then again I might be wrong.
>>343747283
You mean the demo, which by name is an incomplete example of a game still in the making thus making any judgement of the game on the demo a moot point?

If you just want Giger aesthetics, a walking simulator is the perfect fit.
Wouldn't want generic cover based third person gameplay to get in the way of the setting.I unironically believe that video games being called "games" and people insisting on the "game" thing is hurting the media, and we should embrace the whole "experience" thing. Some games are carried by their setting, others by their story, and by their music, and I find that half my favorite games have trash gameplay.

The guy who made Alien what it is.

>>343745718
That's not really mechanical. In fact Beksinski's character or other designs aren't that interesting, what makes it interesting is how he chooses to present them.
Beksinski's designs focus mostly on one key scenario, which is taking something and imagine it's been laying in a dead world with dry atmosphere and no weather changes for thousands of years and see how the landscape would react to it. Essentially it's about decay, but not focusing on biological decay, it's mostly how something would react to eternity in a dead world.
Even the dead creatures he *usually* draws aren't actually decomposing, it's like there's not even larvas and bacterias alive, everything is dead, and even though it's a dead corpse lying in a wasted scenario for thousands of years it still preserves all it's skin, everything is sort of mummified.

I went to ringling which has a pretty great graphic design program as well. Their animation and illustration programs are the best in the world but their fine arts, fashion, photography, and game design programs are lacking.
Art history is incredibly important to an illustrator, concept artist, or graphic designer. Having a complete picture of how art has advanced throughout the various cultures of the world allows you to combine and reference them in your own work. Most concept artists today have no idea what they are even doing when they design. A great stylistic fantasy world is always based on reality. So when a concept artist doesn't have any art history education they have no foundation to work with.
Honestly, illustration and the like won't do much to make you a better artist. If you practice your foundations like figure drawing while also learning art history you will be a better artist in the end. At least I think so.

She has a couple extra lumbar vertebrae it seems. I thought her lower ribs were breasts at first, which are also too high. Her spinal arch is alright but it's WAY too high for her pelvis. Her obliques look kinda fucked too though that might just be from the fabric. Her hip doesn't look properly attached like the great trochanter is pushed a bit too far out, since her pelvis seems to be proper proportion. Shoulders are a bit weird for the rib cage as well like she's pushing them forward and tilting them behind, due to the angle of her spin and neck there. Where's her neck?

Oh yeah I'd say probably 1/3 of all my classes were art history, I'm a senior now about to graduate but I was considering getting a second degree in art history with a minor in studio arts/illustration. I've already done a shitload of illustration, gesture drawing and artistic anatomy classes. I don't have extensive art history knowledge, but I've had a number of courses and love it to pieces. Working in a museum would be really awesome I think, as either a preservationist or curator or something.

Don't know if Giger did that, but Salvador Dali also inspired himself by the dream world. Take a look at this madman:
>Dali was intrigued with the images which occur at the boundary between sleeping and waking. They can occur when people are falling asleep, or when they are starting to wake up, and they tend to be extremely vivid, colorful and bizarre. He experimented with various ways of generating and capturing these fantastical images.
>His favorite technique is that he would put a tin plate on the floor and then sit by a chair beside it, holding a spoon over the plate. He would then totally relax his body; sometimes he would begin to fall asleep. The moment that he began to doze the spoon would slip from his fingers and clang on the plate, immediately waking him to capture the surreal images.

Not that anon but I gave a fair critique and you happened to ignore it in this post. She looks like she has two extra lumbar vertebrae and her rib cage is unconvincing to me. Yeah there are all sorts of biological oddities when dealing with life modeling, but I get the impression this wasn't life modeled. You may have had critiques from amazing artists but her anatomy is still slightly off I think. Granted, I know many artists even Manet elongated spines for the sake of visual pleasure but that doesn't quite seem to be the case here unless it's a playful nod to him (seeing as it's almost all in whites too).
I'm not some dumbass trying to bait, I'm giving you my own fair, informed opinion here. Defend your work besides "muh job muh colleagues I know more so don't argue," that's not the basis of ANY good quality critique in any creative industry. You posted it to prove something, so justify your artistic decisions at least.

Literally surrealism 101 alongside Freud and subversion of function. Pretty much the most essential three tenets of that movement (though Freud can be replaced by "psychology" as a blanket, though his study was predominant at the time).
Subversion of function is what gets lots a lot. It's not enough to just be weird to be surrealist but, in traditional surrealism, a function should be subverted or broken to some degree. I don't see this at all really in many popular contemporary internet surrealists.

I love Giger, dali, beksinski, and all kinds of fucked up surrealism. I can relate with them. My brain is fucked up beyond repair with chronic depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia. Most artists have some form of mental illness, including actors, singers, muscians, painters, every other kind of art. It's a great way to channel your demons into something positive that can help others as well.

You are being naive.
Cigarettes or coffee or alcohol are also drugs and they help out a lot. Cigarettes and Alcohol specifically is the choice for a lot of writers.
Don't hate the drugs, they're just a gateway to a different consciousness, it really helps accessing weird imagery. Meditation helps as well. There are loads of ways to access ridiculous imagery from your consciousness, drugs are just one of many methods.
Now I'm not saying you absolutely need drugs to do it, of course not, there's been multiple reports of great sober artists, but at the least you need to experiment with consciousness or getting into a trance state.

Not if it's a solid undersketch or even line drawing. Hell even a color comp with mild details to get your point across would be perfectly suitable, no one is expecting a finished piece I don't think except you. You come in and wave your dick around then get upset defensive when people call you out despite your pedigree. I can accept you've got over a decade of experience but you're being such a cunt about things I have a hard time believing you're a well functioning member of a team unless you always get your way as director. Your attitude is pretty much that of an egoist and I probably would be turned off from working with you in a workplace setting if you acted like this. You've got nothing to prove, no one cared until you jumped down people's throats. Present your ideas but you don't have to be a shithead about them and talk down to people at the same time.

Anon I'm an artist as well, not a very good one, I'm so all over the place with things that I can do from animation to illustration to graphic design to typography, programming, motion design, etc, etc, that I'm never going to really be a master of either craft. But, I hope you're aware that sort of thinking is the artist's trap, even though historically speaking you know that lot's of artists draw their energy from their pain or anger or whatever grievance they have, that's not exactly necessary. You can get your shit together and still be a successful artist, don't think you'll lose what makes you special if you take care of yourself. Lot's of artists have successfully wrestled with their demons and came out alright, but most just assume they need their demon to draw energy from it until it consumes them. Anon, don't be another cliché, please take care of yourself.
>>343749856

You people are literally retarded.
The first complaint was that it wasn't concept art. I never said it was. I said it was just the first piece of mine that I came across that had censorship.
I never said I "farted it out".
Is reading seriously this fucking hard? Reading comprehension?

>What do you think of Lynch or El Topo guy or other surreliat film makers?
To be completely honest I've not watched any Jodo at all, though I've read his Eyes of the Cat a long time ago and really liked it. I've been meaning to read Metabarons get watch some of his movies. I've seen both Dune and Jodo's Dune, though Lynch's was when I was much younger and can't recall anything besides it being very different from the book. Loved the doc though.
I've not gotten into much surreal cinema over the years, I've been meaning to for a while though.
>>343750246
>Now while I agree with you I wouldn't compared alcohol to psychedelics or weed in a million years
Not him but why do you mention agreeing on a factoid? It is a fact that caffeine and alcohol are classified as drugs; there is no opinion there. On the subject matter at hand, alcohol is grossly more harmful than a drug like marijuana, and there was a rather large case study several years ago that showed psychedelic drugs themselves to have no negative link to mental disorder. Essentially, their 'harmful effects' are a huge misconception since most people are willfully ignorant and do not research their opinions.Polite sage for responding because I don't expect any sort of civil discussion on 4chan, especially /v/ of all boards, especially especially when informing someone that they are wrong about something. I do fully expect this entire post to be a waste of time.

>>343750246
I hardly even do drugs, I've done weed once and I hated it. I just find that experimenting with consciousness helps a lot accessing weird imagery. I mean really if you just close your eyes and stay still for 15 minutes your brain will start producing some ridiculous fucking artifacts, problem is the moment you open your eyes the spell breaks, so it's hard to take back those images in your head to the real world and try to draw them in real time.
If only there was a print screen for the mind.
>>343750406
> You can get your shit together and still be a successful artist,
Anon, I never said they couldn't. I also never said that mental illness is the only way to become an artist or to make art.
I said art is a good way to deal with mental illness. Which is why so many artists have those issues. Art is a great way to take something bad and turn it into something good.
You can still make good art if you have your shit together. You can make shit art if you're mentally ill as well. But at least they are trying.

Difference is spinal elongation was seen as more sensual instead of conveying innocence or trustworthiness, but of course you'd know this right? Of course you would.

Lynch's Dune is a famous example of someone trying to do something good and then the suits coming in and fucking it at the last second. Just watch Eraserhead and then move onto his other stuff. He hasn't made anything bad that was an original creation. And you'd love him since he's a Dali fan as well.
Jodo is also amazing but even more batshit insane.

Yes but what I'm saying is, some artists assume that they need their own little inner demon to be an artist, and refuse to take care of themselves because they're afraid they'll lose what makes them a good.
If you're not of those great, I was just advising you because that seemed like what you were saying.

Seriously this is the problem with the internet. If you say "Yes, I am very knowledgeable and experienced at this subject" retards like you reply with "OMG THIS FAGGOT THINKS HES THE BEST IN THE WORLD HOLY SHIT HAHAHA"
I never claimed to be the best artist in the world. There are a lot of artists better than me, but then again, there are a lot more worse than I am. And yes, I do have a lot of experience and education. Yes, I am good at what I do. I know exactly where I stand as an artist myself. I know a lot more than the person I said those things to orginally. Go back and read the comments. The guy has no idea what he was talking about when it comes to what makes a Beksinski or what makes a Giger painting.

Even though I agree with what you're saying there's also a pitfall that you can fall into. *If* you're satisfied with your art to such an extent (and I'm not saying you are, that's just an if possibility) you can lose your drive. What fuels a lot of artists is the continuous strive to improve, if you start feeling like your art is great you can easily lose your motivation to continue, so walk that tightrope a little carefully.
Just look at Frank Frazetta, he was one of the greatest artists of the 20th century, and in the 60s and 70s he produced some of its most beautiful paintings, and as his ego grow bigger his motivation got lost. I mean he was correct in assuming he was the greatest, it's essentially true, but when you assume there's nothing else to improve you lose your drive. He eventually stopped painting altogether. So even though it's good to be confident in your abilities, please make sure you don't go overboard, otherwise you'll lose it.

I've skipped over a majority of the samefags and shitposters.
If I wanted to just shill my art here I would do it full scale. I posted one painting with a name or website. Sure they can reverse it but whatever.
For my paintover of the MC I'm making this face [pic related] much more like this. More like a creepy mask with shiny eyes.
I think it would be very cool to have a character look like a giger/beksinski cross over. Right now it's more like a cartoonized version of a beksinski figure just stuck in a Giger environment.

Did Franzetta say that's why he stopped painting?

> azily combined two different artists
that's some good bait anon.

they're usually boring to play and lazily made
I don't want to say it's impossible but I can't even imagine it being as good as something like Shadow of the Colossus which has SOME kind of gameplay motivation tying everything together.
Speaking of I think my favorite "exploring some world" game is FFXII. The lore and environments in that game were amazing.
>>343751873
Not that guy but it's like asking what's wrong with modern warfare corridor shootans. Everything is good in moderation, and grating in excess.

>incapable of admitting any deficiency at the moment.
Ah, you're just retarded. You're butthurt that you're wrong. Like, you can't grasp the concept that your "critique" is wrong.
>you have no respect for anyone you're talking at,
Ah, you're just retarded. There is literally no reason I should give you any respect. You don't deserve it. I have replied to other anons in the thread about many things quite nicely in fact.
But for you... you say one thing, then claim you never said it. You're stupid. That's all there is to it and the fact you can't remember what you've said in a 30 minute time span kinda proves it.
>>343751946
I have already posted why that's a reason and I'm not the only one in this thread that thinks so.
>>343751615
he actually didn't stop.

>One of the best.
>Queen is genetically deficient.
Sorry Frank, but your stuff isn't that good m8. Best of luck.

I don't think he even knows why he stopped painting, I mean he never really stopped altogether but he was never as prolific. But personally that's how I read the whole situation.
I mean really, as an artist do you know that feeling when you're about to finish a drawing and you just know you're improving and it's the best thing you ever did. Now imagine if that feeling is gone, if you reach the peak (which essentially he did in my view) how do you regain that feeling back. How do find motivation to continue producing art if all your incentives are gone, except money.
There's an interesting podcast that talks about how the brain handles motivation, and how using external rewards (money, fame) as your only incentive can kill your drive to create:

>expecting "giger, beksinski in the games" thread
>get this shitfest instead
>>343751902
Eh, it wasn't too terrible as far as VGA-esqe adventure games go.
>>343737004
/v/ overhype this type of game eventually it will fail
Nihei is better than Giger.
>>343752293
How dare you
I mean I understand Frank is overhyped and if you have any hipster bone in you, you're going to rebel against it. But our boy Frankie deserves all the praise he gets.
I know it doesn't make for such a compelling underdog story as Beksinski, but don't be such a faglord contrarian you penis muncher
>>343752148
Not the guy you were replying to but ever notice that the only posts you respond to nicely haven't critiqued you? Also notice that you never actually engage their critiques and instead just call them wrong and insult them?
>>343752293
name a better artist.

Ayy, my nigga is gettin stoned

Allow me to shill this game.
It's a mostly linear exploration game (i.e. walking sim) whose focus is on visual arts, mostly in the form of playing with lighting & shadows. Draws inspiration from Blame among other things.Give it a pirate.
>>343752148
>anon provides thoughtful critique
>ah you're just retarded
Going by the chain of posts you're the retarded faggot here, you literally didn't read what he said and shitposted about inane cancerous bullshit while insulting everyone who so much as dared to have an informed opinion. Fuck off cunt, you can't even follow the posts yourself. I thought you were supposed to be a professional? This is fucking pathetic. You're a generic, run of the mill whore for hire artist and what's even sadder is you can't even accept honest feedback when it comes your way anonymously. No one in this thread has been antagonizing except you and blatant bait posts, and I don't think you're baiting because you're so fucking serious about your own shitty paintings that anons DARED to talk even a little bad about. Fuck outta here you dense piece of shit and stop shitting up /v/ with your viral either.

Well I'm not too big on many art artists myself. I only asked because a similar situation happened with Rimbaud. He basically came in and leveled the poetry world and produced tons of work from 16-21 and then just quit and became a gun merchant until dying of cancer in Africa somewhere. And now we only have theories as to why he just up and left.
It's interesting you look at artists like science specimens or something tho. I guess you'd say Rimbaud's chemicals stopped telling him to do poetry.
>>343752417
My nigga, I love The Void. That level also has a secret Pathologic room.
>>343752417
looks good to me.
>>343752610
Anyone who can make a non-malformed face.
>>343752552
Just telling you what I see. Your pic is good tho'.
>>343752658
I was the first (You), I bought that game and played it and I'm going to play through it again with my CV1. First person adventure games are my shit and I think it sucks when devs have to slap game gimmicks onto their stuff just to quell autists. Said game gimmicks most of the time tend to ruin the immersion of the world they're trying to create and is distracting.
>>343752148
>you're retarded, you're stupid and I'm better than you so there: the post
>>343752658
Example of pretentious artsiness.
>>343752368
shame his art was wasted on shitty scifi novels from the 60s.
