Gilles primarily uses Photoshop and Softimage XSI to create his art Gilles primarily uses Photoshop and Softimage XSI to create his art. Here is a quote from his Q&A: “With a good portfolio, you can certainly find a job in a game company somewhere. Show the best of what you can do and you’ll have your chance when you will be good enough. The toughest thing is to start.” Gilles uses his concept art to help create the atmosphere for a game and create a visual representation of the Art Director’s vision and what the game should look like when finished. He also takes screenshots from the game and paints over them to show how they can be improved.
