These capsule based buildings were a way for me to refine my process. For this, I started off with some basic building shapes and some limited texture pallets to keep things cohesive.

From there I created some very messy, but very important potential compositions.

And of course, here are the 10 buildings and a building floor stone blocked out in 3D. The handpainted texture really helped keep the painterly style consistent through the whole process.

Cleaned up pages of exploration sketches from my person project SOLARIUM. I’ve done a lot of exploration and thinking for shape language, story beats, flora, fauna, and mood in my sketchbook that I wanted to share. I still have a lot to plan out, but I hope that you enjoy.

Each of these yellow sticky notes marks a page with project sketches.

Jaz the Immortal. Time moves differently here. A long, lost astronaut seems almost immortal by comparison to some of the lifeforms here.

Paint over of the 3D models that I use whenever I compose a scene.

All Solarium aliens are based on terrarium friendly creatures. I spent a while in my sketchbook on this phase before I moved to digital.

I want to explore more of the Solarium world. I started by thinking about what sort of interaction previous inhabitants might have had with the environment and what that might have looked like.

After some rough sketching, I moved over to blender to do some blocks outs. Assets from Quixel Bridge and posing in DAZ were brought in to help this stage. Everything else was modeled and textured by me.
