While on the topic of artist websites...
Posted by David on June 16, 2009

A visitor has tipped me to another Korean artist's website that is definitely worth a look, especially if you liked the last one. The artist goes by the pen name pjch00 and boasts a portfolio that includes projects such as Lineage, Ace Online, and Gunster. There are hundreds of artworks on the website, mostly in the subjects of environmental, architectural, and aircraft, so knock yourself out.

An artist website worth visiting
Posted by David on June 10, 2009

I was sifting through press assets for the Korean MMORPG Aion today, for what I'll inevitably put into an art gallery some time in the future, and I randomly came across the personal website of the Aion art director, Hyung jun Kim. English speakers will find the website easy to navigate as it offers both Korean and English text, and it's well worth the visit. K.jun is a well-accomplished artist, having worked on projects such as Lineage, City of Heroes, Guild Wars, and Shaiya (you may have seen his art in the Shaiya banner ads).

The site is worth a visit namely for the gallery, which features 3D and 2D illustrations from Mr K.jun and his wife, and they're some of the best I've seen. Also worth noting, the site doesn't contain a hentai gallery like is so typical of many Korean artist pages, so it's pretty safe to browse at work.

King of Fighters XII fan art contest
Posted by David on May 19, 2009

Ignition Entertainment just tipped me off to a fan art contest running through the official King of Fighters XII website. The contest is open to US residents of at least 18 years of age and the entry period runs to July 31. A grand prize of $1,000 is being offered, while runners-up may receive consoles, figurines, or copies of the game. Full details are available on the official KoF XII website via the 'Fan Art' link on the main page.

And of course don't forget we have a KoF XII art gallery with all 22 fighters if you need references. Just be sure to use your own poses and ideas as you'll be judged on the originality and spirit of your work.

Understanding console sales
Posted by David on May 17, 2009

The last couple months of hardware sales in Japan have been a bit uncanny, with the PS3 besting its smaller motion-sensing competition by a decent margin. Even with help from software like Resident Evil 5 and the Final Fantasy XIII demo I've found the sales boost a little surprising. That is, until I saw what the release schedule for the Wii looks like...

...yeah, there's no way that will see a North American release.
