Speedy backgrounds

These are mixed media pieces I did fairly quickly to get an idea of how the universe I want to create will look. I talked to Graham and he had the idea of basing the structure on an atom. So I started looking up the geometry of covalent bonds. All the individual planets are connected by tubes (it it was a covalent structure these would be the bonds) I like the idea, I think it ties the world together. The next step is to try a much larger panning shot that shows different depths. The planets are traditional made cut outs, the tubes are vector images made in flash and the sky is photoshop.

New Blog

Thinking about a new blog design, that is all.

Props and things

After the sweatbox I was up till twenty to four preparing for I was told to start on background and environment work. So I started with props. I want to create a powder room as well as some exterior environments tomorrow. These are two of the chair designs in use. Also I think this will be the basis for one other adverts I want to design. I see myself producing a few billboards and the like to advertise products available in this future to make the world seem more believable. This will be for one in which robot ladies can purchase various hair styles and weld them in place with the gun in the picture.

3 am.......grumble!

Its gone three in the morning and the reason I'm up so late is there is a sweatbox tomorrow morning. I have to pitch my major idea and hope 1. There is enough of it, and 2. They actually like the idea to start with. Hmmm I just finished this 1950's/Mary Blair inspired thing. Its very quick, I want to give it another go in illustrator later to get a cleaner version but I just needed to give an idea of what I want the show to look like. i'm posting it because the blog feels a bit neglected.

New Project

Finally back in uni and I have a new project. Its nice to have something to focus on :) its flash based which freaked me out at first as I have had problems with the program in the past. The first week I had time to play around with the program and get to know what it could do which was very useful. My idea is space based, because I thought it would help with the idea I have for the final major. I'm still designing but here are some backgrounds as they appear in my storyboard

Robo Lady

I like Pin Up art, I also Like science Fiction, I decided to mix the two with this Robot Pin-up! There are a few other robots I need to upload still, so more on the way :)

Skating Girl

This started out as an Amy Pond fan art thing, but I didn't lke where it was going. I thought it looked like the little character was skating so I made her into an ice skater. She may become my christmas card this year :)
