"A game environment artist is able by virtue of imagination, create worlds of aesthetic value that sets the tone for a storyline and gives joy to an audience."
With an explosion in console capabilities, environment artists now have the necessary tools to express their thoughts and ideas to their fullest. Therefore, from the maker of the Dominance War series comes a new annual challenge that is here to give environment artists everywhere a grand event to remember! How it works? Artists may enter alone or with up to 2 other partners to create an environment that surpasses everyday objects, scenes and realities. When the event is over, the challengers who created an environment with significant interest to capture the hearts of judges, wins the event! Be it for - awesome cash prizes, to make some great friends/contacts, inspire others, show your talents, get a job in the industry, or to have loads of fun while testing your skills to the max, you only need to bring yourself and your talents to fully appreciate this event.
From the boards of Gameartisans.org and Polycount.com, we sincerely hope you will enjoy this new annual challenge and take part in making this a spectacular event for Environment Artists around the world!
"Polycount has been with us since Dominance War I. Now, this summer in 2008, GameArtisans is proud to collaborate with its green brother and likeminded gameart-only forum on another Epic Challenge for game artists... or more precisely, Game Environment Artists! It has always been our commitment to further the advancements of game artists around the world. With Unearthly Challenge, we hope to offer yet another high-class once a year event for a new category of artists: First character artists in DWI, then concept artists in DWIII and now environment artists in Unearthly Challenge! Rest assured, Unearthly Challenge will have the same, or greater, sponsors as the DW series and every environment artist will have the means and set up to fully flex their muscles and strut their stuff.
We are looking forward to seeing some amazing work!"
Yours Truly,
"Polycount is very happy to be teaming up with GameArtisan's on an environment art contest to the likes of Unearthly Challenge. Over the past 10 years, Polycount has seen some incredible environment art being showcased in its forums and because of this we're very excited about UC. We know those artists posting that fantastic artwork are yearning for the chance to compete in a contest of the same caliber as the Dominance War.
For those of you who've wanted something like this since DW1, this is your chance. It's time to grab your shovels, put on your hard hats, and dig in.
Let's show them what a world looks like when Black & Green and Game Artistans join forces."
