Team NeoStock
Finding the right stock photography for Digital Art is way more difficult than it should be. The majority of the resources out there are just not fit for purpose. The NeoStock project was created to address this problem.
A truly collaborative endeavour, NeoStock resources are produced by a team of veteran industry professionals, at Fire Eye Land studios, Margate (UK). Our concepts, poses, costumes and model choices are guided by a 1,500-strong Focus Group, consisting of publishing professionals worldwide.
