Artist PROFILE

Rob Green

LOCATION: UK

Concept artist with six years of industry experience, currently working at Fallen leaf Studios on Fort Solis. https://bit.ly/3QlBjLZ

Starting out as an artist, creating a professional-level image can feel like an unattainable feat. This is exacerbated when you see thousands of highly skilled artists on social media, creating incredible images that leave you wondering how on earth they arrived at such a detailed and complex final result.

When you don’t know the strategies artists use to get such outcomes, the ArtStation home page can be quite an intimidating place. Hopefully, in this workshop, I can help remedy this by breaking down the gargantuan task of creating a professional-level image into nice, bite-sized, achievable tasks.

In this tutorial, I will be giving you a glimpse behind the curtain and showing you some of the many strategies we concept artists utilise to get a professional outcome in a short amount of time.
