WIM: New concept piece finished

in Digital Painting, Final piece, Photoshop, Space and Environment, what if metropolis, Year 1 with 3 comments

Finished off my new concept piece, I added some bits to make the buildings look more like buildings and added lighting and shadows. There's also some suggestion of rumble and the buildings falling about.

WIM: Concept piece almost there!

I made the clock face smaller and added detail to the background and buildings, I just need to add some more to the buildings so they look more like ruined buildings rather than odd structures. I'll also add the lighting and shadows when the piece is closer to completion.

WIM: New concept blocked out

Blocked out my new concept piece, I think it's looking pretty good so far but I'm just trying to figure out what to put in the background. I'm also not sure if I should move the sun thing over?

WIM: Colour compostions reworks

in Colour Comps, Digital Painting, Photoshop, Space and Environment, what if metropolis, Year 1 with 2 comments

Played around a little bit with the composition of two of the previous comps I did and added the colours of my previous piece to see if they looked right with them. I think they both look better without the foreground elements so I'd most likely go for 1 or 3.

Reworking some more compostion stuff, I'm quite liking 1 and 4. These could be worth working into.

What if Metropolis: Figuring out a new composition

in what if metropolis, Year 1 with 1 comment

I've been having trouble figuring out a new composition for my city and decided to use Maya to create a rough scene and play with the camera. (Please excuse the extreme blocked out shapes!)

I'm quite liking 1, 5, 6 & 9. Any advice would be helpful!

Here's the midday lighting I did for the cottage, I rendered the sky and cottage separately so this enabled me to change the sky in photoshop.

What If Metropolis: Concept Painting Final

in Digital Painting, Final piece, Photoshop, Space and Environment, what if metropolis, Year 1 with No comments

Here's my final concept painting for my city! Added some more texture to the ground as well as shadows and lighting. I also made a quick painted bird to demonstrate the scale of the buildings.

What If Metropolis: Work in Progress Concept painting 3

Almost done! Added the textures to the buildings, just need to add some light and shadow then clean everything up.

Definitive Influence Map for What If Metropolis. I picked out the Ernst paintings that inspired my ideas the most and the kind of natural textures I looked at in my ideas.
