Eon (Illustration) Entry: Juha Kämäräinen

[Falcorr]

Hey pretty interesting.

So this time 3D artists and 2D artists are all in the same illustration challenge.

Hmmmmm... Will be fun to see if 2D or 3D artwork wins this one :)

Gotta go read those inspiration stories before i can post a thing.
Good luck to everybody. Hope that crunch wont ruin this challenge for me.

[TheFirstAngel]

nice to see each other for sure, should bring the artists closer together, but in the other hand i find that rather confusing :rolleyes:

have fun, and best of luck :)

[johantri]

kindda twilight zone....:eek: (well, thats the story all about isnt it?)

is it a 3D+2D mix...? sweet....:thumbsup:

[sininen]

FYI, Eon has been published also in Finnish, with name "Aikatunneli". You might find it in a library, I remember reading it years ago.

Good luck for the challenge!

[MrFreeman]

:thumbsup: Good Luck Falcor

Great to see you back for another challenge.

great start.... I'm still reading the book, so will be a few days before I can get started.

keep the great work coming

[Falcorr]

ArtisticVisions: thanx! good luck to you also :)
TheFirstAngel: confused or not.. Your first sketches look way too awesome for me!

MichaelZHsee: Thanx! Good luck man. I sure hope somebody would also say what a nice finish :D

Squibbit: Just read the damn book and go silly with eon.
johantri: Its going to be only 2D. Thanx for visiting :)

sininen: That was news to me. Hope to find it somewhere. Too bad that book is so big! Challenge will be over if i read it. So im just going to use the inspiration snippets.

MrFreeman: Thanx! Last time i failed because of the crunch! So my perfect row of finished pictures was ruined because of crunch time. I hope to remedy it with this piece. And yeah nice to see you too :thumbsup:

Cool tricks.. Just doing something until im ready to just finetune everything.

[Zephyri]

Good lord, Falcor, I love that last post, so dramtic and energetic. I adore the fact you've used a myriad of colours, and the way you're starting to pull organised shapes out of the chaos is quite inspiring. Great start!

hey man! love the progress, cant wait to see u start detailing and polishing it :)

[bandro]

it looks great man, the "psichodelic" effects on the horizont seems great
good luck partner!!

[MarkyG]

Really, really cool. Love the colour and motion.

I wouldn't mind seeing the skis thickened up a bit. Other than that I love it.

[LightSovereign]

unique is the word, be interesting to see how you pull this one in, whether you start defining shapes without loosing the frenetic energy of the textures, lets hope not!.
vivid and again, unique!

nice work

[nwiz25]

http://nwiz25.cgsociety.org/gallery/444492/

cheers! :beer:



> coool update man! :eek: details r comin up very nicely! :eek:

[Falcorr]

After reading the book

My craft doesnt look anything like the tuberider which was detailed in the book... Tuberaider is not the same thing as V´STOL

VSTOL is this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THZkfGbN37k&mode=related&search=

Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey

Transformed to spaceflight with rockets and boosters.
Tuberaider is a common jet engine with clamps coming from the middle or something.
Attached to the singularity from the center.

I'll propably try few times and call it quits with this challenge if i cant make it happen and look cool in a day.

[Falcorr]

Finally something worth updating.
I should hurry and do the VTOL on the top of the tuberider and just call the picture finished..

[Falcorr]

http://features.cgsociety.org/challenge/entries/14/11665/11665_1168113073_medium.jpg (http://features.cgsociety.org/challenge/entries/14/11665/11665_1168113073_large.jpg)

Background is done. Im not going to fine tune it too much. Now im just going to model that VSTOL with 3D program and add it to the picture...

[nwiz25]

very good choice of colours mate! :applause: me waits to c da 3d model that wil b incorporated soon :bounce:


good luck dude! :thumbsup:

I gotta hurry up with my VSTOL & tuberider modeling.

Heres a peek

Just give brutal feedback. Im working on it. So i dont mind. Ill keep things i like.

[ChuckWadey]

It's looking good, and your V/STOL is right along the lines the book describes. A couple other details that you might have missed are: 1) "V" tail and 2) Forward swept wings. Otherwise it's what I imagined from reading and painting.

I think this'll be a really cool image when you're done. Good luck with it.

[coCoKNIght]

hehe, I think you gotta hurry even more than I have to :) looking good though, kewl color stuff!

[Falcorr]

http://features.cgsociety.org/challenge/entries/14/11665/11665_1168371396_medium.jpg (http://features.cgsociety.org/challenge/entries/14/11665/11665_1168371396_large.jpg)

This is my new layout.. damn.. i gotta redo some of my background.. need to hurry.



To what direction did the wings V shaped at? ..

[ChuckWadey]

To what direction did the wings V shaped at? ..

The tail pieces slant upward like a "V". The outer ends of the wings with the engines sweep forward in the same direction as the nose. Don't worry about it if there isn't time, these are just details that probably won't matter overalll.

It was just a suggestion for keeping with the text, I don't mean to slow you down.
