The Renaissance Art of David Alvarez [Update]

Fine Art[Fine Art](https://kotaku.com/c/fine-art) is a celebration of the work of video game artists, showcasing the best of both their professional and personal portfolios. If you’re in the business and have some art you’d like to share, [get in touch!](mailto:plunkett@kotaku.com)  

David Alvarez is a 2D and 3D artist employed at Ubisoft, who has worked on games like Assassin's Creed II, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin's Creed Revelations and Test Drive Unlimited.

Today, we're looking at his work on the Assassin's Creed series.

Since Alvarez is able to work in both 2D and 3D, we get a good cross-section of concept art here, some of it paintings and sketches, some design work, others examples of the kind of 3D work that goes into a game as big as Assassin's Creed that you take for granted.

You can check out his personal site here for more pics.

UPDATE - Ubisoft got in touch to let us know that the majority of images in this gallery, which appear on David's personal portfolio page, are actually the work of entire teams of artists, not just Mr. Alvarez.
