What type of art is this?

Question

I wanted to know what the name was of this type of images? I am basically asking for the name of the style that these were done in?

@Neuroavalanche This has nothing to do with the style of the image. — SaturnsEye, Commented Aug 28, 2014 at 8:11

I don't see one particular aesthetic to either of those.

In terms of what 'type' of artwork that is, a number of descriptors could apply:

I also don't see a style, i do see good use of contrast: contrasting colors, contrasting detail vs basic shapes, contrasting dark and light, and even contrasting environments with objects / characters.

agree with @Daniel, that I don't see any style

I'd say the first one is a combination of concept art (as @DA01 mentioned) with fantasy artwork, or possibly futuristic painting artwork.

The second one, I have no idea! Possibly indie futuristing paintwork.
