But very few people can convey in their works the real mystical spirit of the eternal struggle between good and evil. German artist Dominic Mayer (Dominic Mayer) fully owns this art. That's why his paintings are so loved by fans of fantasy and just romance of the Middle Ages.
If you've never even heard of Dominic Mayer, you're probably familiar with his work. There's just no way you can avoid it. The artist has been cooperating with the largest game developers and TV companies for many years. Among them, it is worth mentioning only Magic the Gathering, Riot Games, Netflix and Blizzard, so that the last questions disappear.
At the same time, Dominic himself is not listed in any of the companies. He calls himself an "incorrigible freelancer" and does not imagine his creativity driven into the framework of an employer.
Mayer prefers to create shadowy worlds inhabited by magicians, dragons, demons, the living dead and knights. At the same time, he manages to remain a very positive and sociable person.
The artist not only brings his art to the masses, but also willingly shares the secrets of mastery. Videos with a step-by-step disassembly of the workflow are posted on Mayer's YouTube channel. The video sequence is accompanied by epic music, which further enhances the effect of the paintings.
If you, like us, think that there can't be too many knights and chthonys, then rate the work of another fan of mystical battles, known by the nickname Doodleskelly.
