Breaking Dawn

Theme:
Concept based on a scene or idea from a book you've been reading.

Ok, so I've been busy reading through Breaking Dawn (4th volume in the Twilight series) again, and decided to depict a significant dream sequence in which the main character fears for the inevitably voracious appetite of the vampire-child she carries in her womb. She dreams also of standing on a high hillock, a pile made up of lifeless bodies, including her friends and family, while large smoking heaps of the remains of her vampire family burn in the distance. Not my best work, but it was a significant scene that I was somewhat nervous of living up to :)

The Gunslinger

Theme:

Concept based on a scene or idea from a book you've been reading.


I've been reading the Gunslinger, the first book in the Dark Tower series. So far so good, the copy I have has some great illustrations by Michael Whelan so I was inspired to do my own take on Roland Deschain.

NEW THEME - Environment Concept # 2

So we are back to Environment Concepts but this time it's going to be a little different.
The only rule: It has to be an isometric cutout of an environment of any size/shape/style.

EDIT: When I post images on this computer their links break, I'll repost them later from another machine.

Here are a few examples from other artists:
