SketchBook: Drawn To The North

drawntothenorth

Thought i'd start a sketchbook and share what I've been up to recently, got some enviro's to bob the train in as well which should hopefully be done soon. If you have any critique please let me know what you think...

Used Daz and Modo to block out the inside of the trainstation

Hey Man, I absolutely love that 2nd colored concept!
Would you mind if I modeled it for more hard surface practice?

drawntothenorth

Sure go for it, itd be cool to see your take on it when its done

Here's the 3d paint over of the platform, need to tweak some things later on, currently painting up the lower level of the station

Here's what the downstairs looks like

And the main entrance, hopefully have the back view done soon...

heres a new personal project I'm working on

Here's some more Black Sands stuff

Partly inspired by a scene from The Mote in God’s Eye by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. Some marines arrive at a church where an old space ships hologram navigation shows an image of a galaxy.

Used Modo, Phototextures and bit of overpaint. I've included the rough 3d model as well.

A new personal stylised project in the works, It’s about Ember and her siamese fighting fish Sam. They both live in an old troop carrier in a tank graveyard out in the desert. The idea with this is to create a world which could be made into a mobile / indie game. I’ve got ideas for props, maps, enemies etc so check back often to see updates…

Alright here's the rest of the Ember & Sam project, the APC's would act as the home base on the map. The rusted enemy characters could be bosses at main check points. Also instead of health I thought it would be cool to have the fish bowl slowly lose water, so water droplets act as health instead of the usual hearts or what ever.

Loving the new look of polycount, havn't updated in ages so here's a few recent pieces.

Thanks Dedyone, here's a quick update of a personal project. It's a redesign of a 90's strategy game called KKnD 2

So I kept the game play and camera angle the same but redesigned the units, starting off with the buildings for each race.

























I'll be redesigning the vehicles and infantry next.

Here's some Evolved units

Damn, your workflow using DAZ to finish a 2D painting its really cool, i dig that. Really loved your stuff

drawntothenorth

Thanks Renan, havn't used daz for a while. Can be useful once you get used to the interface!
