Digital art and design studio Atomhawk have launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund the design and production of a new art book, The Art of Atomhawk, Volume 2.
The book will feature concept art from some of Atomhawk’s most prestigious games projects as well as personal contributions from its world-class team of artists and work from the studio’s own creations.
The book will also include illustrated tutorials and professional tips from the Atomhawk team, sharing the secrets behind some of the studio’s greatest work to date.
Atomhawk Director Cumron Ashtiani says,
“In the four year’s since we teamed up with 3D Total to create The Art of Atomhawk Design, Volume 1, our art team has really grown and developed and we’ve worked on some outstanding games and film titles. We now have a fresh and diverse body of work, which we know will make a great looking and inspiring book, with something in there for everyone.”
Atomhawk have already raised £6,400 of their £15,000 target in the first week of their four week campaign.
Rewards for backers include a personalised portrait painted by one of the art team and the chance to create a brief for an Atomhawk artist to paint a bespoke image for inclusion in the book.
Each Deluxe Edition of the book also comes with exclusive online access to video tutorials sharing the techniques the Atomhawk artists use when creating concept art for clients such as Marvel, Microsoft and Warner Brothers.
Atomhawk’s most recent credits include Mortal Kombat X, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Spirit Lords and The Order:1886.
