[doffer]

Great idea.

I'm sure it'll be awsome :bounce:

[anostudio]

mmmmmmmmmm really great Idea


good luck:thumbsup:

[burpy]

Cool original idea you've got going. The low-key lighting should work nicely, but just be careful to get enough light in to show off the details and make the image really dynamic.

Although I know how tempting it can be to keep the image really dark for concepts like this!

[sergioKomic]

Cooolness


GOGOGOOGOGO

[GrM]

fun concept, this is a cool take on the subject. I'd like to see how this turns out.

[Lync]

Hi there, great concpet!

I'll be eagerly watching for more...

[arte-i45]

Hey Konstandinos, very good concept, it leaves you open for so many possibilities! Good luck on the challenge.

Matt :)

[Micro26]

Hi Kostas, great sketch u got there man,
cant wait to see u visualize this.
GO on :thumbsup:
:)

[alkhobarspecial]

looks pretty good. my only concern might be the image wont be as appealing as it could be. umm. I guess what i am trying to say is i think it might benefit from another couple details. details that maybe give an idea of where his great journey is coming from. something that will keep the viewer looking at the image and discovering soemthing new. maybe one of your favorite books you read is on the edge of the night stand. i dont know exactly what you would want to add. i just think you might want to add something more.

and i do realize that it was an initial concept paint. anyways like the concept cause i know every night is definately a new journey. Dreams are an amazing gift for us to explore our mind.

[amz23]

Nice idea! But as mmbenya mentions it's very open for possibilities... what will he be dreaming about? Can't wait for what comes out! Also it would be important to portray a dark/night scene, but not too dark that it loses contrast.

Good luck!

Started blocking out a head at 7:00 morning. This is not for the main character, as i will use reference for him. I'll use it for something in the dream part of the image....i have to find some time to work on that.

[newellteapot]

Hi! I really do like the idea of sleeping as a journey. You actually feel different when you wake up, like at the end of a long journey, and you actually walk through fantastic regions of your mind. Looking forward to see it completed!

I'm thinking of putting a Dali- like landscape in there. I'll try and compose it in the first concept image and see how it looks. We'll see

[Selina42]

Hey CgKoko! I'm loving that surreal landscape! The colours and your drawing style are spot on!

[paperclip]

That sketch goes really well with your style and if you can pull it off it'll be really good! Keep it up! :thumbsup:

[Cgkoko]

Heh...Thank you. :)
I hope that during the next week i'll be able to do some modeling.

And here is the concept with the landscape. i think i'll go with that and keep adding as i go.

[Larsen]

Hey, very interesting concept and nice sketch, i'm looking forward to your work !

[Cgkoko]

started blocking out a hand for the landscape, It's going to get z-brushed so i won't get into much detail now

[Cgkoko]

started planting some hands in the landscape

[Ludal]

hey , really nice modeling !

[sergioKomic]

You keep having strange dreams?

I have a very good doctor in mind.... Maybe she can help you...:twisted:


I love the landscape Idea!:thumbsup:

I dont like the head...:wise:

(cracks whip):bounce:

[Cgkoko]

Ludal: heh...thank you. :)

Dorky teenwolf: The truth is i'm having second thoughts on the head myself. We'll see. Back to the drawing board for that.

[arte-i45]

That is one twisted dream scape Konstandinos, I love it! :twisted: I really like the way you've placed the hands on to the plane like that, keep it.

Matt :)

[Selina42]

Wow i really love your hand models -the way you have them posed is so elegant - the one in the foreground has this elegant, listless look to it -very much how a ballet dancer might hold it -lovely!

[oceanbluesky]

please please finish...post more...this is great work...just stick with a concept and work it into 3D...you have marvelous inspiring ideas, a brilliant sense of color and outrageous themes...just don't feel discouraged or whatever, post more, these are really excellent concepts!

[oceanbluesky]

"a Lazy guy without talent"

Yeah, that is half right. --Just noticed your profile as I was returning to the listing of entries. You are a lazy bastard no doubt. Get over it. Your talent is certainly not in question, please finish....

:argh:...yeah..u lazy toi -toi bastard...get on with this....u can finish this in no-time...u know it...we know it...so...what are u waiting for....don't forget ..i know where u are living..:p

[oceanbluesky]

hah this is funny, if everyone reading through this thread tells 'the lazy bastard' to get a life as an artist and actually apply his skills, we could create a new artistic movement in itself...just drop by every once in a while and say, "Inspired yet Konstandinos??!" : )

what a contructive way to vent

[sergioKomic]

No realy I know the guy this time hes not lazy he's BUSY!:thumbsup:

[Cgkoko]

LOL!
I'm sorry guys! I really had a lot of work those days. I'll try and finish this challenge. Just give me 2 or 3 days to get some rest.:argh:


:beer:
