Now that Duke Nukem Forever studio 3D Realms has shut down, former employees have decided there's no need to keep the project under wraps anymore. Two members of the art team have released never-before-seen screenshots and concept art from the game.

Art Director Tramell Isaac and concept artist Layne Johnson apparently created blogs just for the sole purpose of releasing these assets from the first-person shooter. They're both obviously jobless now so they're hoping to get some exposure for their work. It all looks pretty good, too.

Check 'em out for yourself. I suggest you listen to "Dust in the Wind" by Kansas or something similarly mournful while doing so.
