My dick

Kazuma Kaneko

i made a presentation for my 5th grade class on Tim Schafer, like a year or so after Psychonauts came out.

ZUN!

Himukai Yuuji

shit anime, couldn't even get past the first episode. it's like shirobako overdosed on moe

Yaegashi Nan.

>implying he's back from the flower fields

Soejima

Why is Yomi so perfect

I would vote for Zun. He literally makes everything himself, and does well enough to have a huge fanbase behind him. No one else does that.

Yasuda

Takehito Harada

They guy doesn't know how to draw boobs

Ken Sugimori

thats because he knows that flat a best

Watched some girls play D2 and named their Archer "Hideyoshi". So not everyone thinks they are all girls

good taste

>how is yoji shinkawa

I think he means in game character art.

Post iconic character designs

>all the same body type
no

I dont think he's the best character designer but I adore his art style above all else

clearly not
obviously not
you all know your wrong

And who gets your vote?

Great pick, mild sameface syndrome and someone else needs to illustrate humans for him, but they look fine in PS2 Era

ZUN's a strange case: All he does is design cute girls yet most of the designs are very memorable, and succeed in simplicity, and his shitty art has an odd charm to it whenever I see it. This also applies to outer-world characters and Hecatia.

same faced and can't even draw boobs, horrid choices

Solid even if he has sameface syndrome at times. I think he's gotten over Soejima Neck too

Okay designs but great illustrator

Sugimori has never been the singular designer of everything in Pokemon, but he's an excellent art director and illustrator.

>all the dumb weebfags itt
The objective answer would be Michael Kirkbride.

Whenever I post Aoba I get banned. Fuck you mods

My wife Aoba is.

Well, name some yourself

Zero sum yourself

Himukai

Are you sure it's not a joke?

He's not just a writer?

>hurr let me show my superior taste!
>posts generic high fantasy elf shit

gg

...

Generic High Elf Fantasy shit>>>>>>>>>weeb shit

I liked Masaki Takei
Whatever happened to him?

...

He also drew the concept art.

>morrowind
>generic

If we're going with concept art alone: Yoji Shinkawa

His work makes me diamonds.

his work in the zone of the enders saga is god-tier.

I hated how he didn't even have thsi haircut in-game, he resembled MGS4 BB so much.

Not that it really matters anymore though.

What a talented fellow.
The persona characters are legitimately good i was being a shitposting retard before i'm dude below
.
Just found out a guy named Bob Rafei did a lot of the designs for the jak and daxter games, and the villain in crash team racing.IDK if i'd say hes the best, or anything, but i do really like cartoony characters.How do you guys know the names of so many video game artists?Picture is 2 miners from jak and daxter the precursor legacy.

The 90's ended.

Also this.

you are all wrong.
Moby Francke is the best

Isaac Hannaford

...

Randy Pitchford.

>All that work he put into creating the perfect atmosphere for TF2

>Ruined by fucking hats

>himukai
>video design

>ctrl F
>no nomura

I am proud.

Valve loves to promise people to keep the aesthetic they have for games.

Then they slowly start shoving shit that gets worse with time until the game looks like someone puked a rainbow on top of the characters. Sadly it's happening with DOTA now

>merc_wip.png

...

...

Kinu Nishimura

He works for Riot now
>tfw no cohesive art style

Tsunako

Not my actual favorite but I like her art and nobody's posted her yet

This is probably my real favorite. CoP was worth it for the art alone.

...

...

CAPCOM in general

stole the words from my mouth, I was just about to say this

his designs are GOAT

...

...

yoshitaka amano

...

...

If I were as edgy as my 5 years ago self was, I'd say Tetsuya Nomura

Now I'd say Akihiko Yoshida

>let's make everyone look like qeers and clowns
>character design!

...

ZUN's actual designs are great and memorable, it's just his execution that's flawed.

Why is she so flat

Got other things to do, but you can find most of his stuff across these sites

artstation.com/artist/spaceshipguru
isaachannaford.com/
isaachannaford.tumblr.com/
spaceshipguru.tumblr.com/

He does vehicles, weapons, random decorative objects, environments, spaceships, as well as covers too, dude is super talented and has like 4 different art styles across all those things

DO YA LIKE DA GRINDAN GAME

Gotta love those Sangheili

Mine Yoshizaki

I liked how soft the senrans looked when he drew them.

whoever was in charge of capcom's mid-90's fighting games. I don't pay attention to ching chong names, but that dude must have been on point.

This

That shits beautiful
It fits final fantasy

Urushihara

Best hentai artist too

Rui Tomono, and I say that solely on his work on Zero Time Dilemma. The game itself might've been bad but I fucking love the character designs

I came here to post this.

Found the edgelord

Ew.

That was a woman you racist idiot

I am.

Post pics

>all these triggered Redditors whenever Japanese names are uttered

Aussies confirmed normie faggots

The person who designed Roll and then made a bunch of porn of her.

>ctrl+f George Kamitami
>0 hits

Sup Forums really has shit taste

I love him

He's my art hero and I was literally just staring at this pic while drawing and analyzing why I love it so much

Kazuya Nuri just looks so aesthetically pleasing to me.

I wish he worked on more mainline games.

Fuse is all right, but I don't like that sometimes his characters look like straight up Pokemon trainers.

Being the art lead for Dai Gyakuten Saiban, Nuri's in a better position than he would be working on the current mainline.

>can't tell it's morrowind

>like Blackquill
>hate Athena

Damn
