The Fantasy Art of Computer Games #386 - Atlantica Online

North Americans may be familiar only with the North American site for the free-to-play MMORPG Atlantica Online, and thereby miss out on the great artwork in some of the very different wallpapers available on their international sites. Here are just two we've found. Our full collection of Atlantica Online wallpapers is here.

The Fantasy Art of Uwe Jarling -- More than just Horror

Hi Everyone!

As you know, my website presently showcases the fantasy art of computer games, so there's a lot of art out there that doesn't fit there at the moment. I can, however, introduce it to you on this blog.

Today, I'd like to introduce the art of Uwe Jarling. A 9-page full-colour PDF portfolio can be downloaded from his website, and contains a broad selection of his work. Horror appears to the artist's forte and is well-represented on his site and wherever the artist is mentioned, so I have tried to stay away from those pieces and present others here.

Navigation on his website can be somewhat clumsy compared to his DeviantART portfolio, and for a faster overview of his work, you may want to go there instead.

For an insight into the mind of the artist, you may want to check out the interview at Dark Wolf's Fantasy Reviews on October 22, 2008.

Kerem Beyit is one of the digital artists featured in Ballistic Publishing's latest portfolio of "the world's most beautiful CG characters", Exotique 5.
He is very well known for his dragons, so it's nice to see some of his other artwork featured in "people"-art focussed Exotique 5 (pages 46, 99, 117, 192).
