Motorcycle concepts exploration

 

This is one concept I played with a lot and that gave me some trouble. I wanted to make something modern, inspired by old school choppers. So I had to do a lot of research and make a lot of decisions on what works and what doesn’t. Mostly because the art world is pretty much filled with similar concepts and I wanted to come up with something ‘different’, something that bears a resemblance to the others, but is still unique.

The main decision I made was give the motorcycle a long, aggressive look. That is what makes it look like a chopper and it gives it the old school feel.

You can see the concepts below and let me know which one is your favorite!

Matte Painting of a City Walkthrough

Hi. I'm Vlad, the 2D environment artist.

The idea behind this scene was to create an entire city sheltered under an enormous structure. I started from a basic 3D model to build my image and my first step was shaping the inside of the structure. It is made up by the city itself, so I used photos of several different cities as inspiration.

Next, I wanted to create a context for the structure. I realized that it needed other reference buildings surrounding it because its immense scale would otherwise make it seem out of place. To that end I built a few smaller streets and architecture around it. 

 Once I settled on the composition, all I had to do was to render the atmosphere and work on the details to get to the final scene.
