Grand Space Opera 3D Entry: Kory Heinzen

#21

Yeah! very nice concept you have here … And I really love the idea of mixing past history with future science-fiction …

Good luck!!!

#22

The top of the tryptic is by far my favorite part. Although doing a tryptic would be a cool idea, I think the image would feel a lot more epic on it’s own.

#23

This is a Fantastic Idea/Concept! That sketch/painting alone gave me goosebumps!

I look forward to seeing how this plays out!

#24

Thanks everyone.
If I do go with the tryptic, I will most likely re work all three images.
The original ones were just to get my idea out of my head.
I’ll do some more research and drawing.
I would really like to have each of the panels to have its own color theme,
then they will work better together.
If I go with a single image I have a few pencil sketches of that too.
I just need to get them in the computer.
Still the real challenge will be the design of the ships. I want to retain much of the original design, but you know cooler and spacier. he he.
I would love to get that familiar but strange and fantastic feel.

wish me luck!

Those concept scetches are super nice wor looking forward to see this in 3d.

#26

Nice concepts, looking forward to the 3d. Good luck:)

#27

Great concepts. Keep it up.

#28

I did another sketch tody at lunch. I can’t upload from work sooooo…
I’ll do it when I get home, that is, if I don’t for get.
I think this one would be the canidate for the single image.

Thanks for the support.

Oh man … patiently waits for next sketch. :smiley:

These are really nice Kory. I kind of like the bridge scene since it shows the captain and his ships as they journey across the galaxy. However, it is a bit “Star Wars” like, as already mentioned. I’m sure you’ll have the details worked out better.

Always been a fan of your 2D paintings & I’m looking forward to seeing this one in the final judging.

#30

Here is another concept pass.
I refined the final panel and I think I just may focus on this one.
I still want to push the foreground a bit and may fudge the composition some more.
But, basicly this is it.
I still need to do more research and design the ships.

#31

nice concepts men!! very nice!!!

Best luck!

#32

Beautiful work on those concept images, great use of color palettes and composition. the ship design is really nice thus far, I think it will be a nice and refreshing change in this challenge

good luck

#33

This is sublime stuff - really you should consider competing in the 2D section :slight_smile: Great composition, colour and style. I can’t fault this at all…

Wow… Everything is great here so far. I’ll keep an eye out and good luck.

#35

Really love that last concept, wow!

#36

Looks great man. I really love the “pirate” design.

#37

NIce work. I really like the third concept, the one with the purple hue, I’d rather have the bg people in some kinda action though, maybe carrying stuff off the ship…

#38

love the idea can’t wait to see it in 3D

#39

Truly exceptional. Concepts are amazing!:love:

The new landing concept looks slightly more dominant and powerful than the previous one, so it’s very effective towards the whole grand theme.:smiley:

hm… I really like the pose & coloring of the purple sketch. The color of the sky seems more alien, which I think is a good contrast to the historical motif… and that pose is very emotional.

The last sketch was a little over-the-top in the retro styling, imho. If you can maintain a good balance between past & future I think you’ll have an excellent piece on your hands.
