Uplift Universe - Image Entry: Markus Wuestemeier

hi, today i decided to enter this challange. i hope i will find the time to finish this piece …

ok, this is the idea:

a alien insect race is invading the earth. this aliens look like wasps. right now iam not shure if this are mechanic “neo wasps” or some kind of huge biological insects.
the scene shows a young girl driving on a bike and shooting at one of this insects.

i started today in morning with the concept and will now upload the images i have done today.

so good luck everybody and thanks for your comments! good challange everyone … :buttrock:

here is the linework for the bike and the girl

#4

linework + backgroundlines + few shapes

#5

color and light testing

#6

i decided to change the format to a make a better composition.

roughly added details

#7

This is looking great! I agree that the vertical composition works better.
Good luck for the challenge.

#8

Looks good. One of the only entries so far that shows motion and action. Can’t wait to see your progress.

Have a great day

#9

this night i worked out the the first wasp

Bronwen, brad, thanks for your words!

#10

here is a little scene testing with the new insect

#11

i adjusted the shape of the wasp a little bit. thought it was a little bit to static. i think the new one is better.

#12

Your wasp looks great! Maybe you could have his stinger pointing towards the women, ready to plunge. It might put a little more peril into the scene.
Well that’s my two cents worth. Looks Great!.

Wow, that wasp is impressive!

#14

Whoa, very cool scene!
For the wasp I suggest giving it a more ‘alien’ look, so it won’t just be a giant insect monster movie ^^

#15

mhhh, testing. rough sketching the scene … flipped the image, added color.

,…

#16

I like the change.It’s a little more focused.

#17

Yep, the latest one is impressive. I think it needs more urgency in the girl’s pose and expression, and also I’d say the main alien insect thing needs to be bigger in the scene and more threatening. Nice job so far, though.

#18

Looking good, looking good!

#19

Nice dynamics and compo. I agree Baron. What he says can really strengthen the composition and give it move dynamics. Good luck with your entry, I’ll be around. :thumbsup:
