The 'What If?' Metropolis - Online Greenlight Review 2

This is my OGR for The 'What If?' Metropolis! I'm so disappointed about not having any concept art to show. I had a problem with my file corrupting which Phil already knows about, but I still feel like I've failed a bit because I'm not properly fulfilling the requirements for the OGR. I've definitely learnt a lesson on backing up my files! I'm in the process of redoing the concept art so I'm hoping to have it up by the end of the week. For now, here's my production art and orthographs!

The 'What If?' Metropolis - Production Art

Finally finished my production art and my orthographs ready for tomorrow! Here's the production art, as well as a bit of the processes I used. I already made a post showing my production art of the houses that will be in my scene, and I asked for some feedback on colours. I've decided to go with the turquoise colour scheme, so here's what the final version looks like:

Then I did the art for the street lamps in the city. I started with the sketches I'd made from my thumbnails and then made a coloured version which looked like this:

However I really didn't like these lamps... They just didn't look right! So I did a bit of tweaking. I changed the light area to a teardrop shape instead of an oval and it made such a nice difference. I also made the lamp post a bit darker. Here's my final production art for the lamps!

After this I moved on to the main building that will be in my scene, and it'll probably be the centre of attention because of its size and design. This is the building where all the 'perfect' people live, so it needed to be a bit brighter than the rest of the city. I used dark blues, turquoise and yellow to make it light up a little more. To make sure it was completely symmetrical I drew one side first and then mirrored it to have it look 'perfect' in that way. Just what Ernst Haeckel would have wanted!

Those are the three main assets that will be in my city! I will be having a lot of different versions of the houses by using distortion and sizing tools to make them all similar but a bit different. All of the lamp posts will be the same and line the streets, and the main 'perfect' building will hopefully be the most central feature to my city to show the dystopian/utopian viewpoint. Next post showing my orthographs will be up soon!
