Description the problem with working on concept art work is secrecy. It's very frustrating working on something that no one will ever see until a few years (legal concerns). So here's one that I drew over some stuff I did... still very far from the stuff my client asks from me but I get to use the BG elements I made....

recycling is cool.

hope you dig...

this is just an exercise in rendering, not really in design... it's simply a terran version of Halo's Scarabs

edit: changed file. different coloring method.

This is amazing and I would kill someone of 343i's choosing if they promised to get this in a game or movie somehow.

Oh and yes concept art is frustrating it is like asking for icecream but you never get it until you do really good T_T

this one's just amazing. too much secrecy huh? lol can't wait to see what's in store. i totally dug woverine vs. hulk. before that it was what? secret invasion? I have to admit though dude, I dig the way the pencils looked colored over the inked secret invasion look. i'm now wondering if the work you're currently working on is inked???

I just realized that overlay layer is the way to go. recolored this in under 10 minutes with a mouse. It's like photoshop colors it for you

I wish I've learned this sooner.

Iron-Odin In reply to leinilyu [2010-02-16 15:10:21 +0000 UTC]

You could also try a layer in the Color blending mode. It's a great way to work over gray art, and not mess up the values. That way you can color things to your hearts content.

Overlay does a great job of adding some zing to the picture. It basically works like screen and multiply at the same time.

Sweet piece!

I've got to agree with you. It's very frustating! Last year, i've spent at least 6 months doing concept art, and nobody outside the project has seen it. hahahaha

This version is beautiful!

This is great stuff! I would almost add a little more atmosphere to the background ships to make the eye rest on the first ship. But really nice stuff.
