Monthly Environment Art Challenge Concept Thread: January & February 2017
greentooth
Welcome to the Concept Thread for the next Monthly Environment / Prop Challenge!
Great effort all around folks; there were some really polished pieces with the last Challenge!
I'm a little behind in getting Challenge 46 set up - as such I'd like to get as many votes as we can in the next two days and have our selections set by Jan. 2nd so we can get the new thread kicked off!
Below I've selected a few Environments and Props to get us started. Per community request, each Challenge will offer two environment options and two prop options - 1 stylized / painterly and 1 realistic / hard surface each. Please feel free to vote for your favorites or add your own selections to this thread. Remember to vote by posting the concept(s), that you would like to see for the next challenge as a reply to the thread.
Even if you aren't participating in the challenge, feel free to vote!
artist: sam brown
artist: miles dulay
artist: egor bielawski
artist: unknown
If you aren't satisfied with the concepts provided for this month, feel free to add your own! We are completely open to people posting their own concepts, but keep in mind that the difficulty level has to be that of which can be completed in two months' time for the environment, and one month's time for the prop!
The winning concepts will be chosen on the day of the next monthly challenge.
I am looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with this month, cheers!

I was watching the last one from the misty mists of Lurkdom and I'd love to join in
Seriously loving the Painterly prop but the Environment scares me
I'd recommend starting with a prop so as not to be overwhelmed; that said don't feel obligated to complete the entire scene. Just a portion of it or minus some of the props can still make for an effective piece overall !
1. for those who want a compact diorama. artstation link: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/Odq18
2. Perhaps others may want to do a section to better their sculpting and foliage. artstation link: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/xZZbY
I'm not suggesting these so I can do one (being a bit of a noob I would attempt concept 2)
I apologize in advance if these have already been used for a previous polycount challenge.
Peace,
Beardy
Are there only two props ideas or are some images broken?
oh and btw the Grenade concept is by Ben Mauro for the movie Elysium

Here are a couple of suggestions
I really like this one
This thread is specifically for voting on the concepts that we'll attempt to make over the next two months of the challenge. It's an opportunity to vote on your favorite concepts or post your own that you'd like to see the group attempt.
After a few days of voting, we select the concepts with the most votes and those are used for the Challenge.
Hope this helps!
Personally I really like the concept of the Artist " Egor Bielawski " and if it's get selected then would love to participate in the same.
So my Vote for : Egor Bielawski (concept)
Thanks!
Note to self: Don't abuse emojis, especially the hearts.
P.S. Vote for The well and the David Harrington posted by @brianshray
Edit: Original Spam flag. Apologies for the double
Here are my favorites from the provided options (I love Sci-Fi / realistic approaches)
May this weekend be productive for all :*
Here's my attempt at the grenade. Nothing special, I mostly tried to stay true to the concept art.
This is the concept thread - the selections for this challenge have been made and can be seen in the stickied thread.
