Lucid Dream Project

Hello friends! Sorry for being away for so long. This is due to the big happy changes in my life :)

With great pleasure I present to you my personal concept art project LUCID DREAM. All art is inspired by the lucid dreams I saw. For those who don't know: 

A lucid dream is any dream in which one is aware that one is dreaming. (From Wikipedia)

This means that you have the ability to remember most of the details of the environment in a dream, as if you've seen everything in reality. Atmosphere, sounds, smells ... everything. It excites.

Here are few works done for the project. I'm preparing some walkthrough articles and soon hope to share them with you.

Enjoy and welcome to my world!

Old photos generator

Nice online generator makes your photos look like over 100 to 150 years old! Here's what came up with some of my matte paintings. Check this site http://labs.wanokoto.jp/olds

Trantor (unfinished)

Had no time to finish this for the contest. Guess I'll never would. Sometimes I face such a thing...I am attaching certain efforts to work on an image, but more and more realize that I don't like it and I don't want to continue tormenting myself further on this image, in which I can't put my soul or at least a part of myself. So let it remain in trash...

Pre-DomWar V: WIP 2

Sooo...here is the final entry for Dominance War V mini challenge. I would like to work a bit more on General, but had no time, unfortunately. But I'm happy with how Shadow turned out. Well it was a good warm up!
