A couple pieces of WIP



Here are a couple images of WIP from the "Giraferilla" project. It took me a while to do an 11" x 17" (350 res) floor entirely out of networking.

Nighttime on my Computer Planet

This is the concept for the night view. Not much to it and still needed a lot of work to make it look amazing!

Well I did end up making the networking brighter in addition to adding an actual moon rather than keeping the sun (I'm not that lazy folks). I also added in an eclipse!

The pre-final piece. Again, I wanted to add in plants and vibrant colors, in addition to some big footprints. Looks like someone or something escaped the jungle. What are those observation towers for? And what happened to the people that were living on this planet?

Daytime on the Computer Planet


This was the original idea for the daytime scene of my planet. The binary shield was not working out and it seemed very bare and flat...


Scene without the Binary but still missing something.

Ahh.. Here we go! A lot more vibrant colors, good amount of contrast, and more detail in the sky (look at all of those volcanoes!). Did you know that, when wet, volcanic ash is a fantastic conductor for electricity? Awesome!

Alien Jungle Scene


This is the concept for the "organic" jungle...


This is the final "Organic/Bionic" Jungle scene. The lighting makes the environment look eerie, especially with Giraferilla's footprints in the distance.
