Hello all
Thanks David :slight_smile:

i found time to do some wips i’m way more concerned about time missing for a final piece but i’ll go as far as i can.

i think i ended up imagining this place was constructed by 3d printing/carving robots which scan the landscape then print structures that are later cover in more common and “primitive” materials such as earth(well wouldn’t be earth i guess it would be kreola hehe) plaster and lime. few generations later those high tech structures are fully weathered and well integrated in the landscape.
this idea evolved in the following wips but really start showing clearly in the last more defined image.
looking foward to critiques.

cheers
Max

I didn’t look at other submissions yet i didn’t want to influence/limit my ideas to much, so all possible resemblance to other ideas are unintended :slight_smile:

This is all very cool stuff. Just pick the one you are most likely to be able to finish as a full Matte Painting. Be careful not to push the 2 sides too far apart though. Great start.


#6

Thanks for the feedback Milan, would you say that the two sides are to far apart in these concept ?

thanks
Max


#7

Love the feel of the first and the last one personally, really like the over grown feel you have going there :cool:

Hey Maxime,

That is not necessarily what I’m implying. I merely wanted to suggest that pushing the plate further back, as you have done in your first sketch, provides you with less of a perspective struggle, while your last concept for example creates a new vanishing point, unless you correct the perspective of the provided image painstakingly. Cutting the photo apart and increasing the distance between the two sides is not the only option to create more scale. There is no right or wrong at this point. It is rather a question of how you wish to tackle the task.

Milan
