Well i suppose i could try a bit of matte painting on a underlayer will i paint over certain area to keep it more simplified i think that an aspect that also depend on the level of game being made for example indie as more flat design with low texture will triple AAA as more matte painted concept art because it higher detail.I would say i am more of a disciple of cool and simple but effective design.Nintendo come to mind not that any of my work as much of a japanese influence.

Thank for the input Joseph.

Yeah. there's lots of games that have different kinds of stylized graphics. so the style of how you're depicting things isn't necessarily an issue, I don't think it needs to be super textured or detailed. Just clear and intentional. With your AAA games, the concept artists are making assets for a 3D modeler to create, basically. So they are trying to explain visually the form and material of each thing, and obviously, design it to look cool or drive a story.

I don't really know what I'm talking about, though. I've just been watching some of Feng Zhu's fzdschool videos on youtube, I think they are really good lessons about how the game industry works, and design concepts in general. You might be interested if you aren't familiar yet! But they do a lot of assignments that are not matte painted or rendered, but they will draw them clearly from different angles, and indicate the texture in some way.

Feng zhu is very solid and i keep coming back to is video but you seem to know more than you think so don't bash yourself. But i would say Feng zhu stuff as a high level of detail so i think he aim more toward AAA.

I also want to do more functional call out drawing but i am not sure how to approch it yet they seem fun and can diversify my skillset.
