People, people! Don't rush your drawings. There are a couple of posts with completed drawings in here. Take your time, and try to make it the best possible. There's still a lot of time (a bit less than a month) for the deadline.

This is the WIP thread. That means people can post their Work in progress pieces for feedback and crits.

I thank all of those who have cleared up my ignorance as far as the "concept" part of this goes. Nor will I dare question what is meant by "art" :)

I do however agree with Threstjester, crits are a most valuable tool in any work.

@joker_mx: where? lol. i don't think anyone has posted a single finished work yet. yep, trying to prettify it as much as possible, especially since this actually represents both art and an overall concept of a game setting. details detail details :P

@bugsport: heh. mine's quite bright. early morning actually. ^^ tho the theme's not quite cheerful.

anyway, progress:

A Step Into Oblivion

Dreams of things that will never be,
Songs of thoughts only I can hear,
Leave me be to sleep forever,
To dream my dreams,
And sing my hymns,
Of things that will never be...

Rixx, damn thats some sick stuff ( in a good way :D). Seems like some people are really getting things done early, seeing as we got over 20 days left. I may post a little sketch im doing of the NSC ( Natick Soldier Center) Future Force Warrior Prototype 2020 Combat System. The sketch wont be detailed alot, and you will probably see erase marks cuz i wont bother to touch it up in photoshop. Its not going to be in my final image but its good so i can get warmed up for drawing some sick warlord dude. I plan to do a futuristic scene.
Here i could use input, i dont know whether to do say...a city, a space station interior, or like some sort of indoor enviroment. I hate doing foliage so ill try to aviod it. So guys, what do ya think, city, space, interior?

PS: o snap my rightside arm is really messy :)

PS 2 : Oblivion, i like that lighting, and also, what is that building? To me it seems like some sort of statue. Lookin good :D

gmorning. my res is 1600x1200, standard 1.333 ratio. i think im gonna submit it as png or something. lower compression nut higher quality than jpegs

Boltshot: lookin forward to seein it ;)

umm... depends on the game you see it in for. FPS would look good indoors. RTS and RPG stuff would look better concepted outdoors. you got to go with your game idea it think. after all, this isnt just about pretty pictures - its about planning a game. :D lol im having problems with foliage too. ;)

about the building, yep its a statue.

PNG is not always the best choice. For concept art it is in fact a bad choice and results in huge files with next to no difference to a well made JPG file. PNG files are for synthetic images ( 3D renders, pixel art ) whereas JPG is for natural images ( photos, drawings, images in general ).

ON TOPIC PEOPLE!

Oh and 1.333 ratio is best, plus images will be thumbnailed to fit within the presentation gallery diemensions. We will do our best to maintain high quality compression.
