Ok, so i got this crazy arttest , crazy in a good way though. Make anything you want, something crazy and fun from your own head that will make us smile.
so basically this wont be a technical peice, it will be all about the style so ill keep it to simple tech. and as for what it will be, i guess it should be my own idea so, cant really ask about that :P but maybe if people have time :P
Post something colorful and crazy you have seen recently might be good insperation.
TLDR: There is a difference between "crazy" and "crazy with a method to the madness" and I think the latter one is what you want. A meatball sub made out of dildos is crazy, but not particularly creative or interesting.
As for architectural inspiration, people like Lebbeus Woods are insane. He draws "crazy" but with a purpose and a method.
sounds like most of the tasks I get at work "make it look cool" , "go have fun with it" . etc this is the best art test, but you'll have to keep your imagination to what the company produces in their games
Make anything you want, something crazy and fun from your own head that will make us smile.
Get to know the company and the games they make. Don't poll random crazy ideas from polycount. No one here knows the company and asking for help on a creative assignment is just lame. We won't be there to help you with every assignment they hand you and you didn't give us enough info to be helpful... best of luck, I guess...
Honestly, everyone has their own idea of crazy. I remember a while back there was a make something grotesque daily 3d thing on cgtalk. I just brainstormed it out, jotting down what made me feel grossed out. I tried getting feedback from other people but nothing really struck me as a good idea. I mean, zombies could be the worst thing to someone ever, or snakes even, but I'm a huge fan of both. For me, grotesque was a blind phallic diseased pug monster with a parasite fused on it's back.
So my best advice is to start up a traditional brainstorm. Grab a pencil and a sheet of paper and write down whatever comes to mind when you think of crazy.
If this was my assignment, I would think of something I wanted to work on and then elaborate on the crazy aspect. I mean that picture above is just a guitar, but it's crazy because who could play that? There's way too much going on for it to be feasible as a music instrument someone could play in a band. That way even if you don't get the job, you'll have worked on something you had fun doing.
sure, im not asking for people to help me come up with something, not gonna cheat on that . jump starting my brain with some pure crazy shit helps though.

As soon as I read this thread, I immediately thought of Jeff Soto, one of my favorite artists. Should be great for some inspiration.

A house eating trees. A face eating itself. Taking lsd could help
