Portfolio Assignment

Ryan Lungley - Portfolio (Concept Art)

Concept Art

Existing Art taken for inspiration:

Non-Humanoid Playable Characters

Cars
Koenigsegg


















Humanoid Playable Characters
Pokemon: Mewtwo X - Original Image
























Pokemon: Mewtwo X - Sketch Image
























Warriors Orochi: Orochi X - Original Image






















Warriors Orochi: Orochi X - Sketch Image




















Original Drawings: Half Zombie, Half Mutated Tree Plant
























I have taken inspiration of this character from a variety of different aspects.

A Helmet with Visor Protection that has chunks taken out of it, indicating damage.
A Zombie that has clothing of a Warden/Security Guard that watches over Prisoners.
A Corn Plant that acts as a Weapon which is also a Staff with thorns growing out of it.
Plants/Roots that act as legs for the character in order for it to move about.

Next I will be color in the drawing to indicate more depth and realism to the character.

Then I will be researching upon different clothing textures in order to implement the character itself in order to start my final design of the character.

Which will be created using Adobe Photoshop in order to lay out the character, using the sketch as a template at first, making the lines darker to be able to see the lines themselves (printer scanner did not scan the image really well).

Finally from the revamped sketch template and materials gathered, I will create my character in Photoshop (3D Modelling of character will be too difficult for a 1st year Portfolio will my current knowledge of Modelling).

Fantasy City - Photoshop Edited

Ryan Lungley - Fantasy City Creation

For this Assignment for creating a Fantasy City, this is what I have created. A City that has many monuments including the Big Ben, Washington Capitol Building, Washington Monument, Taj Mahai Towers, and the Saturn V Rocket.

The bottom part of the screen shows Sunflowers that give the image a calm and gentle remedy to the scene. 

Although the sky and the lightning replicate a doomsday making the city itself not so Fantasy but more of a nightmarish scene.

Below are all of the edited images I used in order to create the above city image (One of each):


Big Ben

Not all of the content in these images used are visible, some are cropped out from these original edited images depending on the layer in which they are assigned for within the Fantasy City picture.

Visual Studies - Wasteland Images for Inspirational

Wasteland Images

Throughout these images, I shall explain why I have chosen these images as a source of inspiration.

Wasteland Image 1


The image above is one of the images that I have chosen as a source of inspiration, there are lots of colour changes that are shown throughout the sky, and the lack of hill shows throughout the landscape shows a curvature feeling when looking in the distance. Also the deserted car makes it feel a creepy and abandoned environment, also there is a lack of life shown throughout the image considering that there are a few trees in the background.

Wasteland Image 2


This is another image that I have chosen as a source of inspiration, there is a lot of apocalyptic scenery throughout the image with the abandonment of the city and the rusting of the car, the bus and the buildings in the image. There is also a lack of colour, the only thing that has got colour is the McDonalds sign.

Wasteland Image 3

This is an image that I have chosen as a source of inspiration, there is the same landscape throughout everywhere on the ground throughout the image, showing a consistency. Also the sky is a similar colour whether it is Sunrise or Sunset, showing either an opening or closing feel to the image.

Wasteland Image 4

The image above shows another wasteland image that I can find inspiration from, the land is cracked and vibes a dark aura about it that can find some un-comforting. Also the clouds throughout the sky is all dark and unnerving which gives an eerie sensation, adding the effects of lightning throughout the background which means that there is something horrible going on.

Wasteland Image 5


The image above is another inspiration that I can find from a wasteland scenery, the landscape for example is entirely flat and the colours shown in the background is lighter than it is at the front. Also the sky is clear sunshine with a few clouds showing a positive aura about the place itself.
