Contextual Influences-Carlo Arellano/Chainsaw


I found the blog chainsaw art through Matt Rhodes' blog and discovered more excellent concept art. Carlo Arellano lives in the U.S and has worked on Van Helsing, world of warcraft and more. I'm fascinated with robot and mech drawings so his work caught my eye. His style of clear and clean images is very impressive, realistic and shows great creativity.







Contextual Influences-Matt Rhodes


Whilst looking for inspiration in how to improve my work I discovered the remarkable drawings of Matt Rhodes, a concept artist who has worked on the mass effect series among other things. I really love the richness of colour and attention to detail in his cartoon-like visuals. He has inspired me to go into further detail with my drawings and to use colour effectively in Photoshop. Through his blog I have also found other artists that interest me.
