Props artists feel like the unsung heroes of the concept art pipeline. Prop designers create a lot of the little background objects that you forget even exist.

Tables, chairs, doors, lanterns… these all seem so insignificant by themselves. But put together these create the world and ultimately help sell the imaginary reality.

There is a real demand for skilled props designers and if you’re looking to follow this career path then you’ll want a focused portfolio. But what should you even include?

Well I’ve curated dozens of amazing prop design pieces for artists and aspiring artists who want some real-world examples from skilled concept artists. Enjoy!
