The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge CONCEPT THREAD | September - October (74)

Pinkfox

Welcome to the voting thread for our next bi-monthly environment art challenge for September and October 2021!

The challenge is a way for real-time 3D artists to test their skills and create a piece of work based on concepts provided. It's open to those of all skill levels and we do our best to provide meaningful feedback along the way so everyone can come away from the challenge with actionable points on which they can improve their craft!

Below I've provided a concept for each category to get us started. As per the usual, this challenge will offer two environment options and two prop options - 1 hand-painted and 1 realistic / hard surface each. Please add your own concept ideas if you have any! Whatever concepts get the most reposts during the voting period will be chosen as our concepts for the next challenge cycle!

Even if you aren't planning on participating in the challenge, feel free to vote!

I hope it is ok to vote for a prop and environment?

Pinkfox

@ChristophLechler Absolutely! Unless someone makes a suggestion for an alternative concept at this point those two will win by default, but the voting process is there to let people voice what they'd be interested in and narrow it down in case there is competing suggestions.
