Daniel Kamarudin AKA TheDURRRRIAN is a Malaysian college student studying concept art and illustration in the hopes of joining the video games industry.
The first thing that attracted me to his work was how similar it is to the works of my favourite concept artist, Kekai Kotaki and I feel as though Kekai has heavily influenced Daniels work and progress as an aspiring artist.
TheDurians work is beautiful yet humorous work that really gives him a much more down to earth and approachable feel compared to other artists of a similar skill level.
Though I wouldn't say Daniels work influences my own work to an extreme degree its still a very interesting learning experience watching his artwork flourish from more simple blocked out designs to full blown renders.
I would really like to experiment more in this style of concept art and illustration, especially in the first picture depicting the headless horseman type character. I feel that his work is quite heavily influenced by various kinds of texture brushes which is something that I need to step out of the box with and experiment with more, it will certainly be interesting seeing how it turns out.
