HERE IT IS! With its own topic!!11!!1two11!

>>> 20120414 - DKC-GameArtGallery-Sparse.7z <<<

To extract this you'll need 7-Zip (It's Free Software!)

FILE WILL PROBABLY ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR A SHORT TIME. DOWNLOAD IMMEDIATELY.

There are probably some duplicated files in there. None of my cumulative scan collection was included, except those art scans already put in the main character/background art folders.

The link is broken. Help!

[Phyreburnz]

It might be gone by now, but did you try right clicking and opening it in a new tab? That's the only way it worked for me.

[Simion32]

You need to click or open in a new tab the link called "Click here to start download from sendspace".

[Super Luigi!]

Thank you for all of these great pictures, Simion32! I'm not sure how to thank you enough; I mean, I already follow the rules on here. Maybe I should stop posting so much so you don't have to look at it all?

[Scraps69]

So I'm on my mobile and won't have access to pc for a while.. what is this file?

[Simion32]

It's a 7-Zip archive containing official DKC1, DKC2, DKC3, DK64, DKCR art renders and such as well as some stuff from JB and other DK games. Some of them are extremely Rare, too.

[Scraps69]

That's real cool thanks a bunch heh.

[Super Luigi!]

Some of them are extremely Rare, too.

Well played, Simion32. Well played.

[leo_core]

Great art collection Simion, thanks for share this =]

[Gaz]

Maybe you could do in-game screenshots next . Anyways, thanks.

[Axis]

I applaud you sir.

[Katastrophe Kong]

Your Render/Art collection rivals even my expansive hoard! You've got a lot that I don't, and I like how you even got some stuff from the flash websites. Also, I downloaded my Donkey Kong Country Game Boy Advance backgrounds at 800:600, but you got the 1024:1280 ones (or whatever that ratio is)! I also threw away my duplicates some time ago (though I have them all backed-up on CDs).

FILE WILL PROBABLY ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR A SHORT TIME. DOWNLOAD IMMEDIATELY.

I don't think it should be a limited time, how's about... PERMANENT?

[Simion32]

I will NOT upload it here.

The 7z file is 88 Megabytes!!

[Gaz]

I meant there.

[Simion32]

I can't really do anything about it being there, as I don't think there's even a delete link for that site. It may randomly drop off the web one day.

The best I could do is use my mediafire account but uploading such game stuff there might be considered a bit, err.... questionable.

All that said I'll upload it to mediafire but only if/when this site has it eventually removed or the file disappears automatically. [Don't hesitate to send me a PM if the current link goes dead.]

[Milo]

If you're worried about it going down, I took this collection and uploaded it myself (along with a bunch of extra pictures). I put it on mediafire, so who knows maybe mine will go down first. I compiled it from several other image collections, so if you're interested in completing your DKC collection, maybe check it out?

[Simion32]

Blast it, I just realized this thing finally got deleted from the Sendspace servers. Time to mediafire it.

[Simion32]

I should update this, actually. You guys will have to wait for the new and improved one though.

[Gaz]

One year later, and some guy had collected some transparent DK-related renders for me per my request at PidgiWiki. Most in the collection are from DK Vine. It's still a work in progress, but delve in to what I can offer you all now. It was mirrored from Microsoft Live, as I have problems trusting the site's longevity: https://www.mediafire.com/?f605aq203aeeghd. It took an hour to upload this file, so enjoy!

And Simion32, are you going to open a related DKC screenshot collection? There are some rare official Nintendo screenshots, definitely.

[Phyreburnz]

I'm not exactly sure where to post this. I've decided to post here because the original image comes from Gaz's last post. I've never seen those red, green, and blue renders of Expresso. They're slightly different from the render I'm sure most of us have seen from DKC1. I decided to take those colours and try to restore them to Expresso's original colours.

Here is the "original render" I am referring to:

Spoiler!

You can compare and see that they are slightly different.

[Gaz]

Wow, I can't believe that restoration. I thought it was a missing render, because it was extremely well done.

I happened to get the GameHiker image gallery of old DK renders. This gallery was shut down now (with incomplete Wayback coverage) and currently is a webpage that just says "Fatal error"... However, the image directories happen to be there; they are unprotected and free for browsing.

Here's the link to the gallery, in a ZIP: https://www.mediafire.com/?64c05udh7wn8k2x

Spoiler!

On a side note, maybe this topic should be renamed to "DKC Render Collection"...

Found them from here:

What's interesting to me is that the factory levels look a bit different in these pictures than they do in the final product, suggesting that they were going to be different than they are now. The floor is actually catwalks suspended above the ground as opposed to being giant, metal slabs, there are holes in the floor, there are lamps hanging from the ceiling, some of which shine on the floor, hooks hang from the ceiling, the background looks a lot more detailed, the weather isn't stormy, and the furnaces look different and have gigantic pipes coming out of them. What does everybody think?

[Qyzbud]

Thanks for sharing these; they certainly provide a higher resolution than I've seen before, and the beta designs are fascinating.

I've created a new gallery album for the factory renders, and have added the vehicles to the items album.

[Simion32]

I just emailed Lee, to see if he has anything else that he can share.

I'm thoroughly impressed with the exclusive, hi-resolution artwork he's put up, and I'd love to know if there is anything else that can be had.

[reversalmushroom]

You know what would be cool? What if he still had all models and uploaded them to the internet so we could open them up and take a look around?

[reversalmushroom]

Hi Guys!

Take a look at the Page from Adrian smith: http://mradysmith.wixsite.com/adriansmith/

He posted Infos and Render from his work as a Lead Designer at Rare:

Donkey Kong Country: http://mradysmith.wixsite.com/adriansmi ... ong-county

Donkey Kong Country 2: http://mradysmith.wixsite.com/adriansmi ... ongs-quest

This.
The 1st 2 here: https://www.tumgir.com/tag/donkey%20Kong%20country%203
There are a number here we don't have: https://videogameartarchive.com/tagged/donkey+kong+country+3
I know it's technically Donkey Kong Land, but it is a port of DKC3, and it uses the same assets, so I think it's close enough:
