Art direction is the core responsibility of my role as an Concept art and Illustration Outsource Supervisor with Blizzard Entertainment. It was an honor to work with many of the greatest artists on the planet on a franchise I grew up playing. I art-directed a variety of different art assets such as marketing images, deluxe armor sets, in-game assets, event displays, art books, and so much more. Below are some examples of work I supervised.

Updated armor originally by Brom, and a seasonal marketing image by Rapoza.
