A move to explore interior lighting and surface materials on the various starships and vehicles in the infinity universe.

A Dryftship hovers past the war torn image of Kathage Harbour that is set on fire from severe storms and weather.

This is an illustration for a potential client, along the lines of a transport airship. I wanted to create a more unique design compared to existing sky ship transport designs and after multiple forms, I settled on this shape.

Ultimately, I was not quite happy with the overall lighting, but a last minute change with steam and clouds helped to gel it together]]> Sun, 08 Jul 2007 18:11:57 +0000 http://koshime.cgsociety.org/gallery/500175

This illustration started off as initially a speedpaint from which I decided to expand upon which resulted in this illustration. I had set myself a challenge to paint merely with one brush, and as economically as possible.

Here is the initial speedpaint:

This high concept illustration started out as a simple cruiser concept initially. Subsequently, I thought it would be nice to feature a variety of unique vehicles that have been concepted and modelled for the MMO infinity and feature newer vehicles i had concepted.

The textures on the main vehicle took me a long while to paint due to the in exact nature of the lighting, and thus it was a long struggle (lasting 4 days off and on, trying to get it to feel right)]]> Fri, 30 Mar 2007 23:28:48 +0000 http://koshime.cgsociety.org/gallery/477931

As a new take on painting space related art, i ventured into illustrating in an impressionistic method and thus took the liberty of using hues of red and green to illustrate a distant nebulae field, whilst using a dense field of space dust to provide for atmospheric perspective]]> Mon, 05 Mar 2007 23:43:58 +0000 http://koshime.cgsociety.org/gallery/464613

The concept illustrates a futuristic space hauler featuring advanced pulse propulsion (currently limited to Mach 5 since 1950s initial studies) and ORMUS based (exotic matter) levidity to maintain altitude. The concept was subsequently used for a CG Society tutorial. ]]> Thu, 04 Jan 2007 06:25:35 +0000 http://koshime.cgsociety.org/gallery/440584

A hi-concept painting illustrating a strike frigate leaving for deep space based on original designs from modeller supernovae for the infinity game project.

I had to research colours that are possible in terran like planets with possible different vegetation/light absorption of its fauna/flora and landmass types and ended with a green-blue landmass.

Original model here
