Game Artist: Matthew Carofano

  Matthew Carofano is the leading game artist of Skyrim 'The Elder Scrolls IV'. He has done many concept arts of the game and has also hugely contributed to the art within the game itself. e.g. characters, weapons, clothing etc. apart from Skyrim Matt Carofano has done art for other Bethesda games such as Fallout 3 and Fallout new Vegas.to the side is a example of the art that Matt Carofano has done in Skyrim in my opinion the art is Skyrim is amazing as it contains great amount of detail. Also there is a water color painting underneath the game picture as an example of the difference between game graphics art and actual painted art.

What makes the game picture so interesting is the way that the blue/purple tinted flame on the bow that the character is holding stands out remarkably because of the dark surroundings. as well as that you can see the enchanted arrows on the characters back  which also are glowing purple/blue so the stand out better than if they were just plain.

The second picture which is a water colored painting has a dragon blowing 2 people away with just the power of its wings, it is amazing how this distorted effect can be done without the use for editing  programs also the amount of detail of the dragon is remarkable being as this was done with just water colors. also in the background you can see the mountains which have a great amount of detail for a background. for example the sun can be seen shining of the mountain in a orange tint.
