Emperor's Soul - The dungeon


Lyraina

Here is my visual interpretation of the Imperial Prison (or more like: a part of it), designed to keep forgers locked up securely. 

 

As I am not sure how many of you here about behind the scenes/concept work for the entertainment industry, a short explanation: The photo references on the side are additional explanation and texture information for people who might translate the 2D concept into a 3D work (i.e. for a computer game or animated movie). In this case there are obviously not for any real production but as I am using this as a portfolio project, that's how I am going to present it anyway. :)

Absolutely impressive! Upvote. Wouild give two if able.

Noticed a small (not really important) part: wasn't there something regarding an aluminium (or however it is called in the Rosean Empire) wall behind the stones?

There was a thin sheet of ralkalest (read: aluminum/aluminium) supposedly encasing each of the cells designed for Forging.  However, in this concept there's no reason for the aluminum security blanket to ever be rendered.  Maybe, during Shai's summation of her escape plan, will the rocks be pulled away to showcase the metal wall behind it, but that's the only reason I can think of for that piece to ever come up.  (And even then, it wouldn't be a full cylinder, like the cell itself - it'd just be the patch where the stones were pulled away)

that is sweet

Would be really cool seeing your ideas come to life in a video game or something :D 

Thanks! I would love that, haha! Video game, or a short animated movie might work too I guess!

Thank you! Yes there is... well, Landis already explained it, basically :) I could've put it in the "cell" drawing, but I actually imagine the rocks to be thicker than the part shown in the sketch, and the ralkalest lining being *behind* that.

Thanks for explaining :)

Ah I love your visdev! Especially the environments, Absolutely stunning.

Sorry arty question, do all your environment start out in the grey format before adding of colour? Sorry, just super keen to see how you went about it.

Love it so much. Art frothing.

Thank you! I usually start in color right away, if I intend on making them colored that is (as opposed to just lineart). That way, it is easier for me to get the mood right. When starting in greyscale and applying colors later, it never turns out as nice as if I start with colors right away.
