Concept Art Thread

agreed again, but terragen is great for just checking conceptual ideas and not a final product

Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I've been able to post anything on the forum (college is keeping me too busy!). I don't really have time to help with the programming like I promised when I joined, but I still wanted to contribute, so I drew some alien concept art.

First two are from the same planet (2nd pic shows 2nd creature attacking 1st)

Some other random creatures:

I'm not the greatest artist, but I think these turned out pretty well.

Not too bad. Interesting shapes.

Got two more!

Nice drawings. I didn't see your last post when you made it, somehow, but I like them too.

I don't know if this has been done/is the right section or not, but I had some free time so I decided to actually produce a 3d model of the Thrive logo at the top of the forum.

Didn't take too long, I guess, and I was considering doing some sort of animation to make it more cool, or interesting, but I guess I wanted to see if you guys thought it was worth it. The bottom of the R is a little wonky. I guess I could fix it if you think it's necessary.

If you could make a very high poly model, that would e great.

Of the Thrive title, or of something else?
I can make decent models, but I have a bit of a lack of patience when it comes to very high poly stuff. Could I make High Poly stuff...? Probably, I guess...
Maybe I just have a poor modeling method, but it's always such a huge hassle for me to individually move, scale, or rotate each individual ring of vertices to a unnoticeable degree just so the whole can be made more complete; just because in High Poly models there are soooo many of them. I wish I was still using 3dsmax...

A high poly thrive logo would be great. I know blender is difficult, but it's pretty powerful. I could make a high poly model in sketchup, but it's a pain to export.

Just out of curiosity, what would a high poly version of this be used for?

Promotional videos, opening sequences in the game, that sort of thing.

Speaking of which, I swear I can't get the image of an eye with that logo reflected in it out of my head. Any number of different, alien looking eyes too.

If you apply a displacement modifier, you can subdivide the surface. I used that quite a bit when I modeled a couple of rocks.

Do you know how to animate it? if not i could do some basic ones such as a simple rotation or something, and with sketchup i found a way to export it into a .dae or .obj that we could use.

So there was i drawing a brain. While drawing this brain i thought of biology. That lead me to thoughts of evolution, which lead me to Spore. Then i remembered Thrive.

Well i didn't draw the brain for concept art, but i think you can use it:

GL, i do sometimes check on you guys.

It has quite the frontal lobe.

Hello again, Darkov! Nice drawing... Of a brain.

Don't come up with terrible jokes. Don't come up with terrible jokes.
