Description Enough with the crappy submissions lately, here is the real deal!
My submission for the Strange Behavior Challenge at CG Society.
It surely is one of the most time consuming artworks I have created so far. But I guess, it doesn't beat some of the commissioned artworks I have painted...
Well, frankly, I just don't know how long this took.

I really wanted to go for a setting in a japanese metropole right at one of those diagonal crossings -just love those.

As you can see, the image is crowded with details, a lot going on everywhere. It's not the way I normally work and that's why I wasn't too happy with the image for long. But I have come to like it now.
I like the fact, that I was pushing myself and, well, challenging myself for this contest creating a pretty fleshed out illustration.

The LCD shows a scene from AVP. Apart from everything else, I painted that one from ref.
Oh yes, I HATE that film btw and only used a scene from that because it fits the concept.

The crushed airplane is of course (what else?) my White Queen 3D model.

Most importantly, check out the detail shots!

These aren't even 100%, more like 60% , varying also!

I am anxiously awaiting the next challenge, this was much fun!

Hideyoshi In reply to narrated [2007-11-24 13:51:39 +0000 UTC]

agreed! AVP IS an extremely crappy film. It ruined BOTH brilliant series. I only used it because it fitted the concept perfectly

narrated In reply to Hideyoshi [2007-11-26 14:49:51 +0000 UTC]

i know, paul WS anderson, what a douche - totally ust milked the great triumphs of other directors and turned it to spooge, i mean predator and human teamin up - what the tits is that about!?!?argh. also, 12A (PG13) ARGHHHH! still, have you seen the trailer for avp2? its still set in 'today' but at least its not touched by him and maintains a decent level of violence 80s style.

"i mean predator and human teamin up - what the tits is that about!?!"

Um, dude... Alien: Earth War, the Dark Horse comic series Anderson try to emulate but ruined, had that very idea in it. That shit came out over 20 years ago.

Awesome picture dude. On so many levels...

Hideyoshi In reply to narrated [2007-12-05 23:33:30 +0000 UTC]

sorry, late reply! You're damn right about Paul Anderson, he's turned into a sucky director. Event Horizon was rather decent, but now he stinks
Oh, so right, man! When I saw the scene with the predator and the girl running side by side with the explosion in the backdrop, I almost puked...
Dunno about AVP2: the idea itself is shit. WHY in God's name do they have to make YET another sequel!?!? Bastards! The trailer was really badly done if you ask me. Didn't appeal to me at all when i saw it.

narrated In reply to Hideyoshi [2007-12-06 13:59:49 +0000 UTC]

huh, forgot about event horizon, that wa a right film but suprise, he didnt write it. his next projects are all remakes or game conversions offering no self creativity only sub-standard, textbook directing skills that could be learnt from an hour in a screen practice lecture. AND the diagloue he writes is balls enough but then in AVP 'same principle as a condom, i'd rather have one and not need it than need it and not have one' copy and pasted right out of true romance... argh ...sorry for the rant, its just the resident evil films make me want to spontaniously combust.

haha, I agree! He's just a BAD director. Resident Evil was bad as hell also!
