noice! its coming along well!

br00dley 2024-06-27 20:03:54 UTC #42

Added some details in the brickwork and reflections.

mitsuki-youko 2024-06-30 20:06:32 UTC #43

ooh i really like how it looks!

br00dley 2024-07-14 19:46:03 UTC #44

Started on the 5th and last environment for my personal project, the Dunes. Home to the Wrench Wing and their mining operations out in the desert.

Initial linework and flat colours.

ooh love the depth in this one

br00dley 2024-07-28 22:33:17 UTC #46

Update for this piece, decided to render the environment with no characters first and then add them in later, should give me more flexibility to arrange as I wish later.

mitsuki-youko 2024-07-29 23:11:15 UTC #47

lookin good so far!

This is a very interesting environment. Nice textures developing and a mystery about what this place is. I like it!

br00dley 2024-08-13 21:08:21 UTC #49

Added some life to the scene, and will do some more research in desert environments to help make the ground feel a bit more interesting. Maybe add in some paths/trails and some smaller rocky desert flora. Open to suggestions.

JimSt 2024-08-14 10:44:21 UTC #50

Looking good!
For the most part, I think the textures you have on the sand is interesting enough. There's enough of subtle variance in the foreground that it provides a bit of a mirror to the background.
I guess there could be something of an anchor point of interest in the lower left corner, but I think it would need to be small/subtle to avoid creating imbalance in the composition you have. But since you have the weight of the flags against the background, you do have a bit more freedom with weight than the initial read.
About those textures: I love'em. The subtle sandstone striations and cracks in the wall are great!

ooh that dust cloud in the middle really gives it good depth - it looks amazing!

br00dley 2024-08-18 18:45:40 UTC #52

Latest update, pretty happy with it now. Added some final details and mostly focused on improving the depth of the image. After a value check, I noticed the foreground was to close to the midground value and the towers had to much contrast for the midground.

@JimSt Thanks for your feedback. I agree the foreground feels empty and added some rocks.

@mitsuki-youko Thanks for the support!

Amazing work!

br00dley 2024-09-08 20:02:24 UTC #54

Moving to some vehicle designs, for each faction. Started with a small test vehicle as it's been a while since I've done any precise perspective drawing.

mitsuki-youko 2024-09-09 01:39:48 UTC #55

ooh this looks soo good! the way you shaded it is very professional looking!

br00dley 2024-09-22 19:33:20 UTC #56

Worked on the wireframes for the designs. Designing the big shapes to make each vehicle feel different and perform better in certain situations. The next step is to refine the linework and add details, bringing more tuk-tuk inspiration.

Racer, speed-focused model.

Sidewinder, drifting-focus model.

Off-road, handling-focused model.

Tank, defence-focused model.

Dragster, acceleration-focused model. (Originally a more default and generic design but felt too similar to the off-road model. The design moved towards a tractor to be part of the farmers flock faction.)

mitsuki-youko 2024-09-22 23:31:20 UTC #57

woahhhh the perspective on these are so goood!

br00dley 2024-09-30 20:55:00 UTC #58

Quick update for the speed model. This will be the vehicle for the Hagglers Hold faction.

br00dley 2024-10-13 20:19:17 UTC #59

Hagglers Hold vehicle design, favoring speed overall their tactics revolve around winning the race and avoiding combat engagement when possible.

mitsuki-youko 2024-10-17 06:51:35 UTC #60

ooh i like the stats u made for it
