"Concept art" is for game- and production oriented drawings. This gallery also includes work in progress shots. "Editorial" showcases works for magazines and book covers. The art style is definetely something special. "Illustration" is where you'll find my fully rendered works. They can be used for loading screens or splash arts.

a guideline to successful design
While this idea originated in 19th century architecture and later got applied to product design, it can today be seen as a core principle of good design. It's a purpose oriented line of thought: Once you know what you want to do, the solutions will
emerge. I can help you clarify goals and together we will find a way to achieve them.

THORSTEN ERDT
I always loved drawing, but I learnt the fundamentals of design at the Berufskolleg Kemnastrasse, Germany; a school with extra courses and focus specifically on design. I later studied design/illustration at the University of applied sciences
Münster, Germany and graduated 2011 with a diploma degree. Since then I work as a freelance artist and with customers like:
Weißbooks Verlag Tachyon Publishing Geo mini magazine Schmitz Cargobull Macils management agency and
others
