Epic Gamer Artist: DroidsBane | Epic Games Community

Welcome to a new edition of Epic Gamer Artists, where we showcase artists in the Epic Games Community! Tim from the Team Epic Gamers here, to bring you ?DroidsBane? from deviantART, to share a little bit about who he is, and his Gears of War fan art. He?s also showed us a couple of speed videos of his work!

Say hello to Droidsbane!

A: Tell us a little bit about you and what you like to do.

D: Well I am going to university soon to study Art and Design. I like creating art, and I hope to one day work as a concept artist possibly for a game developer. My interests other than art include: making animations, a bit of photography when out for a walk, and reading. I also like watching comedy, sci-fi movies and TV shows.

A: Are you a gamer? From some of the artwork I?ve seen, I assume you are!

D: Yes! I am big into gaming. I?ve played (in order) Gameboy, PS2 and about 4 years ago I moved onto Xbox. I play Xbox mostly as well as a few PC games. I enjoy playing shooters and RPGs with a good story to go with the gameplay. Halo and Elder Scrolls to name a few are some of my other favorite game series outside of Gears of War.

A: So you play Gears of War?

D: Yes, a friend introduced me to series a few years ago, at first I thought it was just an overly violent shooter, but once I played I saw that it was so much more and I?ve played all three since playing Horde, Multiplayer and Campaign with my friends and I?m looking forward to Judgment next year, my favorite characters in multiplayer are Clayton and the Theron.

A: You?ve shared some process videos with us. It looks like you do things in traditional medium. Do you prefer pen and paper? Do you work digitally too?

D: I work mostly in the traditional medium, using a combination of acrylic paints and ink and pencils, I often prefer this medium as in the end I have something that I can hang on my wall, however I mostly work in the digital medium as there is more freedom to experiment without having the fear of starting all over again if I make a mistake.

A: Do you have any favorite artists that you look up to?

D: Well, there?s Syd Mead, a concept artist who worked on designs in some of my favorite films from the 80s such as Blade Runner and Aliens, and H.R, Giger who designed the Xenomorph. And of course, there?s the artists who produce amazing concept art for video games which inspired me to try digital art several months ago.

A: Have anything to say to your fellow artists and Epic Gamers?

Not much, but keep on being Epic.
