I'm planning on doing few quick concepts before I tackle more finished concepts.

First of all, I do not want to do anything that's sick and twisted. So, the concept behind this image is that of an embryonic machine which is preparing a near final stage of a female warrior. I may do other views just so that I get the concept kinks worked out.

Ooooh, stylish!

So, basically, if we weren't screwed before - we definitely are now... :thumbsup:

Good luck, Ed Lee.

Version 2 of concept sketch part. I'm still searching for the right look and the angle. The design is still far away...and needs alot of work. But, the basic idea is that we are in somekind of experimental lab where they are creating artificial beings.

dupertuis: Ahh...no, I can't seem to run Mirai anymore. The ethernet card has malfunctioned.

OK, changed the angle totally and the contraption. I'll still going to add a background image...but yeah, the female subject is suspended in the air with the cords and hoses. I'm also thinking of her mech suit nearby to say she'll be injected into the suit.

Please see large pix here:

[daemienwrath]

I think I will go with what JamesMK said. Were screwed. Damn nice concept art. Can't wait to see some 3D stuff from you

[evilmaul]

i agree with ppl....i like your concept and wait to see it in the third dimension :)

That's so awesome. I love each concept, but think that your latest easily has the most dynamic pose. Showing the body in a suspended state like you have is much, much more dramatic and also shows us much more of the form than your first sketch. Keep up the fantastic work!

:bounce:

[Pumpuli]

Amazing beautifull drawings! Great atmosphere, quite clinical and somehow sad. Your technical skills as an artist fill me with awe, but your ideas aren't too original. So far there's nothing that hasn't been done before, just almoust familiar ideas in a different costume. With your skill, I certainly hope you could conjure up something more unique.

[RLyons]

Kick arse drawing Ed, have seen some of your 2d work before, am very excited to see some 3d.

[deepforest]

Very cool concept and well draw!
waiting...;)

[Grorum]

concept rocks ! :cool:

let's rock on details :drool:

I want to at least post something even though it's not finished. Anyway, this is a sketch of the suit the girl will be getting into.

Thanks to the encouraging words!

WOW is all I can say. So much detail, and it's not even 3D yet. I just checked you site out and realized I already had it bookmarked from some months ago. It's one of the sites I go to when I need inspiration. (Or when I desire to feel like an insignificant insect.)
Your sketches are awesome, the stuff on your site is awesome. :bowdown:

[rickycox]

I love your drawing technique, free flowing lines yet a definate sense of structure. Do you use a Wacom?

[Throbberwocky]

I also love your sketching style. It's rough and clean at the same time. Looks like you are sketching directly in Photoshop.
I'd also like to know if you are using a wacom and if yes, which one? Just out of curiosity ...

Keep up the excellent work!

Really good concept Karnak :scream: :buttrock:
