Latest Update: Concept Sketch or 3D pre-visualization: Value composition

This is my first concept.
I guess there is nothing stranger or more insane than destroying our own home/planet. I am trying to represent a screaming Earth suffering with all the atrocities that mankind is doing. A mankind that is acting more like a virus/parasite than the superior intellectual race it claims to be.

New Idea.
Sometimes a strange behavior in a certain moment in time can become something common in the future. Mobile phones, cars, planes… all of them looked strange and uncommon at a certain point in time, but today they are everywhere.
I was thinking of creating a situation with several cavemen eating raw meat and looking with disgust at one of them who is putting the meat on fire and eating it.
In this sketch I am looking for a “look” for the cavemen…

I like your idea, zeoyn, that some of the biggest discoveries in history were considered like strange behaviour at the beginning, I was also thinking in something like that but couldn’t translate it into a picture theme…
your caveman design is very original, I love the big legs and feet… are you going for 2D or 3D?

#5

i agree with the ‘fact’. not everyone can accept changes in life, mostly just leave it as it be. so this cave man idea do work.

#6

HI, in order to reinforce the idea I have mentioned I will probably leave the raw meat vs cooked meat idea and go for something more clear. The caveman behaving strangelly will be carving a wheel and the rest of the cavemen will be mocking with him and finding him ridiculous for creating such a useless object.

elmasfeo> Thank you for your comments. I am going for 2D. I work fulltime in 3D and painting is good for a change :slight_smile:
jengeng> I am glad that the concept is clear :slight_smile:

Love the tusks/teeth. Good luck!

Great caveman ! :thumbsup: I really liked, and “prehistoric” rabbit is nice too. I think you can incorporate the rabbit to your "invention of the wheel " idea, is a great character design.:slight_smile:

#9

good concept and funny style man

#10

I am still working on the caveman look. I am trying to achieve the correct balance between man and animal/monkey.
Not as easy as I thought :slight_smile:

#11

I have placed my composition and light values. I am quite pleased with it. Please let me know what you think.

Gord, Ferx, Bandro> Thank you for the comments. I am glad you like the prehistoric bunny with sabre teeth. It was not supposed to go in the final drawing but if you think it is so funny I will definetelly try to place it somewhere as a little joke.:smiley:
