Latest Update: Work In Progress: 3D concept - stage 0

#2

First concept that crossed my mind. I then realized that the religious motif wouldn’t be such a good idea so i moved on to another stuff…

#3

2nd Concept:

Something like Project Genesis - or how life was made!

The main idea is related to the “myth” or known idea of how our world and life in it appeared…

We all learned about big bang, and the evolution of life, i mean in a scientific way, and all that… My idea here is to show what really happened, where and how it happened…How life appeared on Earth.

This will depict the center of our planet, which is in fact an immense machine, controlled by a race of mechanical/biological entities called G-bots. They are the work force of some unknown alien race, which is thought to be similar to humans. Supposedly they were extremely advanced technologically, but never took much care about they’re world, so they had to move, and made these mechanical entities so they could recreate they’re own world, and thus, re-live again. It was called “Project Genesis II”.

This is my first concept for this idea. I suck big time on drawing and painting, have been a looooooong time since i drew something, digital or paper… so bare with me ehehe. oh and no comments on the left robot thingy…thats a paint brush eheh. I had in mind some scene where the bots are “building” a human being… something like this

I asked my fried Rawgon if he could draw something more into to what i meant, since i couldn’t do it better than this… so he did this image below in like 10minutes (DAMN!!)

Concept image #3: Its a lot like this what i have in mind, except it wont be a room, but a large scale environment. I mean its the center of the earth!! :stuck_out_tongue:
The bots are also “building” up some human being and maybe some more species (plants, animals, whatever)…

Thanks, and enjoy!

Hi there!

I’ve just seen Hellboy II, and i used a frame from the intro part, which i think looks a lot to what i feel should be the center of the mechanical earth! It’s a huge bunch of cogs and gears and whatnot, so i just got a frame from it, and drew some more stuff in it, very very basic stuff, just to get a feeling of ambience/environment and maybe lighting.

I’ll start setting pieces in 3D for start, and maybe some more concepts for the bots, etc… It’s harder when the pencil/pen is so rusty as mine are…maybe its my arm :wink: gotta get some workaround for that, but in the meanwhile this works for me.

Enjoy, and thanks!

Hi my good friend!
You re allready have quite a few interesting ideias!

But it seems your not telling about one of your best, the one that a very old man is riding a bicicle who pulls the steam structure of the entire World! Thats my favorite

Go for it, show us your awesomeness!

Hi there. This is a quick 3d messing around to get a better concept for the whole image. This way i can set some initial parameters as i think works best, like the scene scale, overal composition, etc. Those elements are not modeled to be like that, only to give a first impression of how everything is connected. If anyone experienced in large environment scale images happen to see this, please comment if this would be a good staring point. I feel somehow the scale isnt quite right, but i just cant seem to get it… doh!

#7

Now this is what I like to see, evolution, not revolution…unique concept there.
Good luck!
