    I always liked the art of MG Acid but as a MG fan I thought it was a bad match for what the series is and felt like the artist could only be restricted with MG and would blossom if they got their own projects to lead. Those chaps look amazing though.

    Great video! I didn't know about this guy even though I was familiar with some of the games he's worked on, and now i want an art book. Haha! Thanks for introducing him to me. Are you still doing that thing where your subscribers can tell you about themselves and their art journey?

      That's so cool, np man, glad you enjoyed it! And yes, definitely! Just send me an email about what topic you want to talk about (can be anything game related) and I'll send you some questions on the topic ''e.g. who's your favorite game artist/what games you like to play etc'' so that I can write a summary, and with your approval, share it with the rest of the community.
