Thanks man.

Lord McMutton

Now that's how the Daleks should've looked. Great concepts.

Thegodzero

The chin line on the second one bugs me to no end... Its crooked!

Daleks FTW!!!!
I still like the slight revamp they got on the show a bit more though. Just something about crabfu and daleks that just doesn't seem rite.

Cody

Great stuff! I thought I was going crazy when your avatar blinked. Had to stare at it for awhile.

rebel

these are awesome - i love that girl in the cockpit.. it makes me want to see the rest of the vehicle

SHEPEIRO

real nice,
bet she was one heck of a kisser

Snowfly

Wow Dave sweet 2D work. I love looking at all the different surface types in them, you've captured their characteristics very well. The machine concepts are neat, I also wish we could see more of the machine connected to that cockpit!

Delaney King

Thanks y'all.

Kawe

looks great. a question.. how long time do you spend on your concepts?

pumbaa

Yupp awesome stuff man. I dont know if I should laugh hysterically or just throw up looking at the first one

Davidskiwan

loving it all man, really like the colours you use. In particular I like the fish in the water, the atmospherics and design are top notch. I can definitely see a style in your design too, for some reason the 3rd one reminds me of Giger. Ofc loving that dalek, daleks

Mechadus

Great work! I really like your use of color and Depth of Field. The organic lines of your mecha designs are beautiful also - amazing!

Amazing stuff as usual

I really like the last one...

BradMyers82

Wow, I really like that red demon. It looks like a fancy 3d render you did so well with it. Everything looks fantastic!

By the way, I would also love to hear how much time you spent on these.

Snefer

the first concept is one of the nastiest things I have ever seen. In a good way Really like the spaceship/jungle image too, awesome!

bluekangaroo

those are some pretty nice concepts King. The first one really reminds me of one of the lady monsters from Parasite Eve 2

Delaney King

Cheerz all.

How long? The girl with a bad cold took the longest- she started as a pencil sketch in 1997, then I kept going back every now and then and painting over her. Probably two days if I added it all up.

Hatch took a day from scratch- probably 11 am through to 10pm with breaks.
Green creature took 3 hours- I had to finish it before lunch time.

Designs are roughed out and developed in an hour or so, then their surfaces are detailed in and polished. This takes the longest- most clients just want shaded sketches.

I am taking on comissions at the mo- would love it if people would pass me up to their art directors

Minos

Amazing stuff mate.

achmedthesnake

- awesome stuff dave , you still in auz - or have you finally got tired of whinging 1st year artists :P

- i had a question if your still floating around - the last concept, is that meant to be a take on some kind of dr who dalek? if so cool, i always thought that their original weakness was shite (stairs) - but then the new dr who series made that mute by them being able to rocket away!

Delaney King

Heh, yeah it is. Its a paint of a sketch I did when I heard there was a new series coming out. These Daleks wouldnt fit the tone of the current show, but a much more gothic, dark, cliff hangery type show I had hoped for when I heard the announcement.

"EL-EV-ATE." Was for me the second lamest moment in sci-fi after Darth 'Frankenstein' Vaders "nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" or perhaps rockets coming out of R2D2.

I wanted Daleks that scared the BEJESUS out of people- so these ones can crawl, cut, shred, hover, leap, take up walls, snake their sucker claws around things and generally do a lot of damage. I like the idea that whenever they enguage the hover mode, their skirt has to break open and unfold a little- the idea being it takes up a heap of energy to do.

I disliked the Dalek design from that American pilot book- I wanted something that was instantly recognisable as Dalek.

I am based in Sydney Australia, now, and happy to poke whinging students whenever they would like.

Delaney King

Mind you, Tom Baker chuckling 'if your so superior, come up here' from an airvent was gold.

Delaney King

Heres another one- a speed paint. Dont ask what I was thinking.

achmedthesnake

hmm, i dont have a clue wtf that is.....though those protruding things have a very phallic theme going on - nice!

Proxzee

premium stuff! how do you paint your human skin?
