Party Pods

#1

I suspect that in the future people will just party all the time, drive around in cool cars and generally have a laugh. They will have levitating constructions called Party Pods, which allow people to drink Venusian wine and boogie way above the ground (otherwise a person’s lifestyle could become boring).

I dont know about this one… Your last one seemed better’

Jast SYD Like… :wip:

:applause: hehe plagiar… a litl :wink: eny way good work man…

RyanWalsh - I’m not as keen either but nothing lost, it was fun to do

Romixer - That was my main ref pic, of course. Who better to reference in a Syd Mead style challenge than Syd Mead? :wink:

but syd would never do goofy bubble thingies!

Hi Baron,

Nevermind these guys they are just jealous you created something spectacular and amazing! Nice design by the way, i like it a lot, take care for now.

#7

Thanks, Peter, glad you like it. It’s just a fun piece really, I’m not a vehicle designer type so I figured I’d create a full scene instead. And yeah, some people make silly comments when they should really be concentrating on their own work :wink:

#8

I really like what you’ve done here, I think Syd is going to love the foliage. I was using the exact same reference image for pallet sampling (before I dropped the idea of attempting 2d… not enough practice to do the comp justice… I’m really just a lowly prop maker :P), its one of my favourites from his early/US Steel stuff.

#9

cool image… love all the interaction on the people, good luck

TMunro - Thanks, I appreciate the comment. Must say, I’m happier doing foliage than cars and that’s a fact :slight_smile:

techguy - Cheers, glad you like it

Hallo BaronImpossible,
Love the ambient occlusion that you are using in all of your works.Especially whene i know that is handmade not 3d or whatever…
Seems to be the concept of a cartoon movie or so.Great work as always!!
Cheers.

Sorry for my English.

LefTerris - Thanks for dropping by. Yep, very cartoony this one. Not my usual style but cool to do anyway :slight_smile:

cgdigi - Thanks v much, good luck to you also!

Just wanted to say I really like this one (as I liked “big red”). I agree that your foliage is superbly done; but also that you have been able to recreate that elusive quality in Syd Mead’s work: it shows you how people really live in that time and place; everything fits.

P.S.: First thing that came to mind was The Garden of Earthly Delights.

mujambee - Thanks :slight_smile: The trees were my favourite bit, I think, I could paint trees and rocks all day

USERpick05 - Heh, that’s always the way , best just ignore them. Glad you like this, cheers :slight_smile:

madone01 - Thanks for the compliment, appreciated :slight_smile:

#18

personally, I love the image and, I’ve just discovered the joys of the ignore user list lol

#19

I love the plants and especially the rendering of the car bottom right.

#20

TMunro - Heh, I know what you mean :slight_smile: And thanks again!

SciFibrow - Thanks, glad you like the car. Obviously I referenced off Syd but even so I found it really difficult to understand shadow and reflection on polished metal, especially when they happen in the same place.
