Some of you might not know who Yoshitaka Amano is - but chances are that you have seen his work anyway.
Does "Vampire Hunter D" ring a bell? No? Then how about "Final Fantasy"? Indeed, Yoshitaka Amano was the conceptual artist for both of those - and many others you've probably played or read or seen.
I was directed to this video on YouTube of a 3 part interview that 1-UP had with Amano, I watched it. And when I did, I was amazed at how little views it had.
I decided that these interviews needed to be seen, because not only is Amano an incredible artist, but the worlds he created are just mind-blowing. This is definitely a must-watch for any who wish to become a fantasy artists.

"Can I help you?, "you know this section is.." she broke off her sentence as the man walked towards her and nodded, "I think you can Captain".
Tessa looked down, "I haven't been called Captain in 4 years," Wha..what do you want?"
He gave her a devious grin, "I'm here to make sure you keep your promise."
