To celebrate four years in Hyboria we're posting a retrospective gallery of some of our best and most interesting concepts/art.
Starting with art from the original game Hyborian Adventrures, we'll be adding more over the next few days covering Rise of the Godslayer and bringing us up to date with our most recent work/upcoming work.
That is awesome! i really like that i can see this from reading the books! i have not played the game, but i really relate to the grit and epicness that Conan is famous for. I like!
Yeh Yeh Keep em coming this concept art is awesome and related to one of my favourite settings ... btw is ok to use some of them to make some environment or character for fun?
awesome shit, especially the pseudo african guys. i always thought it's a shame that those sophisticated outfits that some tribes use hardly ever get used as a reference for clothes in games.
Thanks all, I'm going to be updating with Rise of the Godslayer art next.
Naima- yes it's fine to model things from concepts for your personal work, as long as you're not publishing the original artwork or using it for anything commercial.
Ok here we go with art from Rise of the Godslayer, the first expansion to Age of Conan. Released in May 2010 it opened up the whole new continent of Khitai for players to explore.
AAAhhhh, those evil spirit kids look really creepy. Also, the chosain entry statue kind of looks like a Cthulhu/elephant wearing a top hat, which I am fairly certain, makes it cooler. Great artwork guys.
Thanks again everyone for the feedback. There is so much awesome art created in the games industry and most of it never gets seen. We have been lucky enough to have some very talented artists working on Age of Conan over the years so I'm happy to be able to share some of their great work with you all.
Time for the final post - this selection brings us up to date with what we've been doing since the Rise of the Godslayer expansion and includes art from House of Crom, Tier 4 raids in Khitai and the Savage Coast of Turan adventure pack.
Hope you enjoy them and here's to another four years!
