Matt Rhodes produced concept artwork for EA / Bioware's RPG "Dragon Age 2". The characters he developed were modelled almost perfectly accurate to the concept art which is an achievement in itself but the range of ideas within the clothing, weaponry, aesthetic, and features such as hairstyles, body shape, gender, height and clothes are all well considered, making him an idealistic character designer. First, the initial character designs. 4th from the right is Bethany, who's short blonde hair was changed in game - but Varric, to the very left, and the character next to him, appear as they appear in the artwork to an uncanny resemblance.
I have been a fan of RPG games for a long time, such as Bioware's previous titles like Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate. The concept art I have seen of them so far has never been disappointing and the ideas from the concept art have been transformed into much more than just ideas.
