Project Brief - Environment illustrations

Regarding the exploration of environment illustrations, I have created a total of four types of illustrations: Tropical Civilization, Coastal Village, Underwater Castle, and Desert Caves.

Item 1:  Aztec Pyramid - The Sacrifice

Item 1:  Working Process

I wanted to use the mysteries of the Aztec civilization as my theme.
Especially the Aztec rituals.
Since I wanted to use my final piece to be used in animations, my reference images were also mostly concept art that retained the line work.

Item 2:  Fishing village on water 
- The early-rising fishermen

Item 2  :  Working Process

My design concept is a fishing village built entirely on water.
In the preliminary research stage I focused on observing the functional design of the houses in the fishing village and the design of the bridges.
So when I was choosing the final composition, I wanted to portray the huge bridge as my subject matter.

Item 4:  The Lost Empire - Atlantis

Item 3:  Working Process

I wanted to use the fantasy underwater kingdom-Atlantis as my theme.
I used a lot of abstract shapes to build composition.
In addition to the surrealist conceptual design, I also referenced some of the background art from Disney animations.

Item 4:  The tribes in the desert
- The market

Item 4:  Working Process

I chose to start with the research on geography of the desert, and made the cave my subject 
Then I settled on my theme of people living in caves and added tents and fabrics to the cave.
This piece might be used in a movie or a travel poster to show the life of a specific group of people in the desert.
