Danger Zone

Yes, that's the "curse":) At any level, one's portfolio is actually a year behind oneself:) Unless you're at the max level for at least a year:D

Ok, I found the link
http://www.artstation.com/artwork/diablo...rd-contest

As you can see, his approach is very "concept-art-ish" and not extremely blizzardly. I guess it was the very in your face western approach that they liked (besides the cool execution, of course:) ). Also, I think he got his wh40k gig after the contest too, which makes perfect sense if you ask me:)
And I don't know whether they approached him for the splash stuff or concept art, though knowing blizzard, it was probably for the illustration work... I think he does concepts for wh40k though.

And wow, that's really odd about blacklisting Brazil... As always, it's probably about some bureaucratic bullshit... that's why here in Serbia we can still only pay through paypal and not receive, for example...
