Transcending Life

So this is an assignment I had to do for my life drawing class at uni.

Death is an inevitable experience, yet so many people fear their own mortality.
With this work, I wanted to depict death as something pure that does not have to be feared.

A majority of people who claim to have died before being brought back to life have said that during the experience they felt an overwhelming sense of peace and calm. This is the feeling I wanted to capture through the work. The subject patiently awaits his death as an overwhelming light begins to consume him.

I also wanted to incorporate the Spiritualist belief that the soul continues on after death. This is depicted through the disintegration of the man's body as his soul begins to exit his physical form.

PETROL/BLOOD Polycount Contest

So my first semester of uni is finished, yay!! :D And now I have time to work on some 3D stuff. A friend and I have decided to participate in a current polycount competition where the aim is to create a diorama of a vehicle and its driver. My friend will be creating the vehicle and I will be in charge of the character.

Our overall theme will be post-apocalyptic/wasteland, think Mad Max. We're heavily inspired by games like Borderlands, Brink and Rage. The character will be a stylized, slightly punk sort of character, possibly with slightly more sci fi elements depending on how the vehicle's design turns out. Here is a moodboard to better translate my idea.


Here are a few quick concept sketches to get the ball rolling. Just trying to work out the proportions of the character's body as well as face design.
