25:00 - You have to admire that gorgeous, full-bodied bird. The window is its wings and the entrance stairs are its legs. Just phenomenal.

[@imaniwillis18]

This game has some of the greatest art of all time. There are modern games that still can't compete even with better graphics. Goes to show how important art quality is. Love this game to this day

[@robertkenny1201]

Hope Metroid Prime Echoes and Corruption get Remastered someday eventually.

[@TrentKaniuga]

it only makes sense that they would. 3 doesnt even need much of a graphical update. I just can't play the game with motion controls

[@TurKlack]

@@TrentKaniuga :D I think I couldn't play without them. Never got used to the traditional console controls.

[@novustalks7525]

​@@TrentKaniugathe motion controls were literally the perfect way to play them. Every other control scheme is vastly inferior

[@FoxyPercival714]

I played this game back in 2002/03 on original hardware and still have the OG box that day. It's amazing how the concept art was for the time. And amazing they still had the art and rezzed up the art for HD 2024. The beginning of the concept art showing areas of the map? That was shown in the Prima strategy guide.

[@YourEveryDayJo]

Aspiring concept artist here! 🖐🏽 I just want to say, your advice at 4:27 is incredibly encouraging to me. No shortcuts or fast passes, just honest feedback about how being good at creating and rendering concepts for the small, simple, and mundane stuff (although under appreciated) can make you easily hirable. Your channel is inspiring sir, and I’ll let you know when I make it - no matter how long it takes. 💪🏼

[@GeminEyeArt]

Metroid? This is gonna be a good one 💯

[@silviarav_]

Thanks for the video, loved it! I’d love to see more game art breakdowns!

[@zack_feldman]

This was fun thanks!

[@Ayzay1717]

Cool stuff thank you TK.

[@flameLDN]

Just came to say, i actually really like final fight streetwise, and your voice for kyle. Also really like the arcade mode, even though its undercooked, kinda punishing (3 lives only?! No continues?! Lol) and has no story, if you will. I still love it!! The combat was great! Really hope final fight gets a collection soon with all games included.

[@voletadmin466]

yo lo jugue porque me llamo la atencion el conepto de la portada y me clave con el game no solo porque soy un poco de dibujante y me cautivo su arte en retrospectiva moderna y concepto de la fisiologia del cuerpo como logro cada concepto para mi es el mejor artista creativo de metroid y que catapulto al diseño que ahora llega a ser creo que por la idea que tenia de la anatomia no todo juego se ponia el artista en el mismo concepto hasta que adopto el resident evil 4 el mismo concepto de metroid por eso las 2 franquisias son excelentes ni otro juego logro lo mismo faccinante el arte creativo que tenia se me olvido su nombre y hasta ahora no lo supera ni los nuevos metroid con el game de metroid 1,2,3 son las mejores entregas pero mas el 1 es mas realista en su tiempo y lo sigue siendo el concepto y ver el game asi como resident evil 1 , 0

[@yuko13371]

sup trent , love your videos , and I have a question , I bought a gaomon PD1161 screen tablet and I cant do digital art , I can´t draw on it , I have zero dexterity even tough it´s a screen tablet but besides that , it just feels weird , I can´t put ideas into the digital " canvas " . The Ideas don´t flow while im doing digital art and I can´t visualize anything , help ?

[@coraezyatkinson9840]

you mentioned you had a tutorial on UI design? i couldnt seem to find it on your gumroad?

[@RetrofIex]

Hey Trent, quick question on one of your oldest projects. When you were trying to develop the voice of Kyle Travers character, were you going for a Solid Snake type of impression or was that just a coincidence?

[@TrentKaniuga]

Kyle Travers is my natural voice. The voice I use in my KZbin videos is the performance.

[@RetrofIex]

@@TrentKaniuga LOL, I will admit dude, Kyle Travers has a damn good voice

[@diegopisaartworks9511]

Great video as always. Thanks.

[@KimberlyPinkney]

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Scorn game design!

[@oscarchavezart]

jobs of designing constructions of functional mechanics.........I am still trying to find the answer for why art schools put allot of time into producing character designers, creating classes for character design, and show casing student work that is character design, than showing them that there is more jobs out there than character design. Jobs that can get you into the dream company.

[@TrentKaniuga]

Because that’s what every artist thinks they want to do. They make classes based on what sells their classes.

[@neutralbeige01]

@@TrentKaniuga this may be overasked but would you say character design artists are oversaturating the video game industry? is it too broad to say? are environments and prop art more in demand?

[@AndrewMaksymBrainNectar]

@@neutralbeige01 I’d love more in depth discussion on this

[@Dewfie]

Appreciate the uploads as always, Trent. Did you guys work on Overwatch 2 relatively recently? I was curious if we might see any of the concepts later on despite it being scrapped.

[@TrentKaniuga]

Not really. We did a LOT of work on the first overwatch, such as Blizzardworld, Hollywood, and a few others, but also a ton of sprays.

[@jaketacito1798]

Not sure If you'll see this, but I was wondering if you could talk about making a transition from comics to video games. I have my first comic from an actual publisher due out later this year, but when looking at numbers, the only way I'll be making any money off it is if I sell the rights to a movie studio or something like that. Because of this, I've been considering pivoting my art career from comics to game concept art. I'm a pretty solid artist, and I have some experience in concept art for comics, but I've never formally worked on a video game. Really, unless a miracle happens, I probably won't be able to live off my comics in the future, so assuming that my art skills are fairly competent and I don't completely suck, how much work would someone in my position need to put in to pivot my career, and start landing jobs with game studios?

[@TrentKaniuga]

Concept art is VERY different from comics. You’ll need to learn how the art is used by the 3D modelers. I have some workshops that will teach you. Www.gumroad.com/trentk

[@jaketacito1798]

@@TrentKaniuga I'll be checking them out. Thank you!

Diving into this just confirms what I already believed.

Didn't even know metroid art could be roasted. This gonna be good 🍿

[@sael5084]

Hope you enjoyed it ❤❤

[@theoneyedking]

As someone who is going into anime art style character design video games what would be your advice for me when it comes to what approach in style I should have and what I should do far as other styles as well

[@neutralbeige01]

look into the studios you're interested in joining and pay attention to the style of their games. from an employer's perspective they want someone who is able to replicate their style to the T.

[@aranyak1881]

Love these long format videos!

[@KimberlyPinkney]

33:32 that shape language reminded me more of insects like ants and preying mantis, they are not meant for cuddling more like they're bred for protection and destruction! This commentary is really thought provoking to how I should incorporate the reason why things exist in my story environment for immersion as well as things that the character must interact with. So stuck on player motivation and story that this stuff takes a backseat, until I have to draw it.😂

[@cassandraguan4531]

As someone who loves Android Jones' work, but also prefers to do concept design over pretty pictures, this was very interesting. His work is definitely very different from what I'd like to do. I like to do stuff where you come up with worldbuilding and game design, so concept art would be something I'd love to do. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, it's always wonderful hearing from you!
