Some of the best artists working in video games, TV and film have taken part in a massive competition, judged by folks responsible for the look of series like Halo and Assassinās Creed
Called Ancient Civilizations: Lost & Found, the competition was held over at industry site ArtStation, and featured almost 4000 entries from professionals and amateurs alike. The brief was to āgo beyond imagining a bygone civilization, and bring it to life with a compelling narrative.ā
The competition ran from March until May 8, and was split into two stagesāVis Dev & Productionāso that artists across the working spectrum could take part.
