These are some of the different corporate families, decked out in full protective streetgear.

This is more like it! 
If our teacher is to be trusted, we will finally be given freer reign over our normally so very constricting projects. A space - a user - a product. In my case: future London - roaming gangs of corporate families - a way for them to achieve satisfaction through dueling on the streets.

Starting off with the space: London 2150ish AD. I tried to give the architecture the feel of ages past while still looking futuristic. The gorgeous Thames flood barrier was a great source of inspiration.


Aerial view of London 2150 AD,
two dense crescents of towering corporate buildings coiled around the old city heart, like a slumbering dragon hoarding its mound of gold. Green solar scales cover most surfaces, further aiding the dragon analogy.

 This is a likely field of battle: a multi-storied shopping street, where the logo-sporting corporate employees might run into each other and pick a fight. 

Maybe there are rumors circulating as concerns a botched hacking attempt directed at corporation A's mainframe, maybe Corporation B feels this an unfounded assault on their honorable trademarked name, tempers rise, words fail, and they resort to a more drastic solution to their argument - dueling.

More to come.

Ice cave.
Started out completely blank on this one, mainly experimenting with different textures and with repeated elements, like in the half-buried icicle giant's beard/face/teeth. Time for sleep.

New Owl City, streetview.
Another quick and silly piece, adding to the retro scifi madness that is new owl city. It's brutally rough I know, but at least my fingers and brain got their daily workout. The floating wisps of aurora-like bandwidths - having entered into the visible spectrum for the city's inhabitants - appearing so vibrant during the night, now float placidly through the bustle and commerce, like feathery down caught on the breeze.
