Ah, once again I find myself wanting to create lost civilisations – but not the type we have nowadays with the Egyptians, Aztecs, Mayans etc (which are pretty cool themselves); I love the concept of a futuristic civilisation in ruins over thousands of years old.

This is a concept I’m going to go into a lot more detail for a while as well as futuristic civilisations that aren’t in ruins. It might be fun to have the same images side by side – current, and in ruins. Yes, there will be lots of overgrowth and decay.

This is just a rough render and composite to get the feel of what I’m doing but there will be a lot higher res versions soon!

This entry doesn’t have a larger version because it’s a rough concept so for a change, you can keep the clicking at bay.

While I’m on the subject, here’s one that I did earlier
…about 10yrs earlier to be precise. As you can see I have a long running fixation with dead civilisations – and sunsets as well it appears.

Fortunately, I’ve grown out of my need to have everything orange though.

This was also an initial rough concept I made so it’s not a high quality render – and the plane is modelled out of standard shapes and isn’t textured at all.

This is what sparked my idea to do a short animation but thanks to ill health and work constraints, it never actually got finalised. Many of the models were created and textured so I may add them to this blog later.
