Children of Fire

#1

Hi guys,

Second personal matte for me for 2009.

Concept behind is a world where the suns rays can kill any living thing. So the inhabitants built their world under huge cantilever mountains and canyons to get away from the killing heat.

Working resolution was an little larger than 3k res. Photoshop and Maya for that CG looking vent thingeeeee…

There are still a few issues that I was not able to fix due to time constraints because this was for an offsite challenge. I’ll try fixing it in a later time or at least improve this image further…

Any comment will be appreciated!

Blue Version (Morning)

ORANGE VERSION

eyecon.

Great work. I like the way you’ve used buildings at night to create tech dwellings in the rocks. Awesome concept.

love the concept behind this… very well done…

my only crit would be to de-saturate the whole painting slightly, and de-saturate the distant rock a bit more…

great work!

Matt

mordecaidesign, thanks man, I’m glad you like it. :slight_smile:

matteconcepts3d: Yeah you have a good point there, I was actually looking at a very different and hot world where metal can be burned hence the slightly saturated look. I was torn between making it look alien and making it look earth real…

Love this piece, only thing that is missing is more buildings like this one in foreground(that distant rock could also be alien ship or city)

Hi Eric,

I was absolutely in disbelief, how you can pull this off so beautifully, with accurate precision, in a duration of just 2 days! Hope, I could also do like you in the near future! :smiley: Looks amazing & fantastic! Great concept!
