    In the gaming industry, who gets paid more?

    1) Game programmers?

    or

    2) 3D/VFX artists for games?

    unless you're working for a huge company a lot of the time art is outsourced. Not every small game does it but it is generally more cost effective. I've looked into concept painters and they can make as much as they can handle if they're working freelance.

    I would say programmers.

    Example:

    If I'm thinking right, you see a lot of people making APPs and making a huge number of profits from ads etc. (flappy bird story). They get known for their work also. If its a great game you developed, major companies will buy it for billions. Facebook just bought the WhatsApp for $19B I believe? It's not a game but that's pretty awesome.

    Long story short, I think having a skill-set in game programming than art pays more.
