Forest Creatures

I imagined a couple of creatures that would live in this post-apocaliptic environment. Since traditional fuels are no longer available and the world population was reduced drastically, the wild life had an oportunity to evolve without restrictions.

These forest creatures are mainly large, since they could profit from the florishing surroundings.

In  this piece we have the following:
Lagarllo: it can be foud from the size of a horse to the size of an elephant. they are omnivorous, and can eat fish as well as insects and plants. The human population in occations tame these creatures and use them as mount. They can be found in dense forests and jungles.
Ballerro: these are very friendly creatures that live in the shores. They eat small fish and crustaceans. whenever there is a human gathering, these curious creatures are the first to appear. They are a great companion for fishing villages. 
Picador común: These strange creatures live in the same environments as the Lagarllo. They are the sithe of a cat, and very unfriendly. They are rarely seen by humans. They eat mostly insects and sometimes fruits. Their peack allows them to reach the inner part of fallen logs, and feed from them. 

Merchants

These are my five merchants of this post-apocalyptic world I am working on right now. I divided them into Urban and Rural. 

The first two merchants live in over-populated cities, they are forced to wear a mask in order to survive, because the air is almost unbreathable. One of them is a collector of anything that appears in his way, and the other one is a smuggler from the factory area. 

The other three merchants are from the wild areas. The forest one collects herbs and mushrooms with particular qualities. The second one lives in the shore, he mostly fishes. However, he is the most affected one by radiation and water pollution.

the mountain merchant is the biggest of all, since he needs physical strength to survive the ultra cold weather. There is not much pollution in the mountains, but the climate change made it impossible to have temperatures above -10°C  

Trijodonte

This creature is part of a series of animals I thoght as part of a futuristic world, or post-apocaliptic one, where there is no oil to fuel any kind of vehicles and humans are to rely on more traditional means of transportation. I want to show different adaptations of current animals that serve some purpose in this futuristic world. 

The trijodonte would be the combination of a bull and a camel. This is a very large creature, used as a pack animal by humans.

These animals are very resistant to high temperatures, and can survive without water for two weeks, since they conserve liquid in their humps.

(Post) Apocalipse - Monsters

For the following images I imagined a post-apocaliptic world where pollution and radiation invaded the core of Human Civilization, affecting not only the environment, but also the livings as well.

These monsters shown here belong to the genetically engineered "humans" that were to be the cure to all the environmental disasters with the super-proteins and ultra-resistant genes. However, the tests were performed in unsafe nuclear-laboratories, producing as a result a mutation in the specimens, and therefore these monstruosities. 

This new species managed to survive hiding in old buildings, waiting for wonderers to come too close to their lands. 

They are almost three metres tall, with deformed extremities. The male, for example, has arms that reach the ground, which permits him to run balancing his weight. 

I hope you like this series I will be uploading, thank you for watching!

Research Robot

This is another research robot. I wanted to keep some resemblance with the first one I uploaded, so the cabin window is as well round.
In this case, this robot would be operative in places with tall vegetation, toxic ground fog, or even swamps. that is why the legs are large but at the same time, strong.
I thought that it could gather samples from the soil with the tip of the mechanic legs, and storage them in special compartiments in its leg.
If needed, the legs could stretch the middle piece, and reach around extra 7 mts tall. But the cabin could never touch the ground, since it is attached to the upper part of the leg. This gives it protection against a dangerous ground level.

Les Invalides, 2578

This was made from a pencil sketch I did when I had the opportunity of travelling to Paris. I couldn't finish it "in situ" because of the sudden rain, so at home I decided to give a little something to the loose drawing. I then scanned it, made the stuff in photoshop, and here we are!

My representation of Les Invalides, I would guess in the year 2578, after a world devastation caused by global warming, wars, and so on

The giant rises

This image is a continuation of the previous one, that you can check in the following link: http://delfinacampo-conceptart.blogspot.com.ar/2013/11/forgotten-giant.html

This would be the scene where the giant is liberated from his chains and finally rises

Forgotten Giant

In this opportunity I post this piece. I imagine it as being a giant demi-god, that was locked in a cave or dead volcano by powerful spells. Since this creature cannot die from hunger, it survived for centuries, gaining hate for the humans that locked him. Until one day, he would be useful for an evil mssion, and it was time for his freedom. (What a story!)
Here's the drawing I did, and a middle step before reaching the finished piece

Ñanphant

This is another scanned drawing, I thought of doing a creature that has some similarity to previous ones (Tóralo and Reniervo), they would form part of the same world.

This Ñanphant would be a large creature of 3 mts tall, with very strong legs that allows it to run really fast. Since it has puffy hair that protects its neck and chest, it would live in a rather cold environment.

I may do a scene with the three creatures, probably in some market where they are being exchanged for treasuers of other countries...

Two-legged robot

I got the chance of seeing Doug Chiang's amazing work recently and I got really inspired. This is a hand-made design done without much of a guidance, but I really liked the idea of this piece. I will of course improve my straight lines soon :P

Anatomy Study - Rhinoceros

Hi all, I've been abroad for the last month so I couldn't upload any new stuff, and as well couldn't practice much. Hence, I am uploading this morning's study I did about the Rhinoceros skeleton, focusing on its skull.

I took some references from books, but the head references are from pictures I myself took at the Grant Museum of Zoology, in London... Travels are really useful for inspiration  

Tomb Seeker

Hi all, I`m sorry I haven`t uploaded anything recently, there`s a lot of work going on regarding several projects!

So here is an environment of an ancient Tomb, carved in the stone and sand, with mysteries awaiting in the deepest parts of the several tunnels... !

Tribal Character

Hi! The tribal character has won the previous contest, so here I have made a Concept Sheet with more details.

This character is a serious Commander, and leads a group of very well trained tribals, who prefer to keep their identities protected from the common people. No civilian has seen his face without cover.   
The spear he uses is a symbol of his status, and is hand-made. On the other hand, the knives and swords hanging from his belt were taken from his enemies.

The skulls he wears on his showlders are from exotic creatures they have captured during their missions.

Commanders

We haven't seen some characters for a while, so I will do a series of characters with specific restrictions. Here we have our first set, "Commanders". The restrictions I considered are: Tribal/Medieval (not modern), covered shoulders, and high rank!

So for this entry, let me know which one is the one you would like developed in a Concept sheet, with detail of poses, weapons and costume! You can leave a comment here or in the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Delfinacampoart

Cold streets

This image would be the same street as the image befote, but with another perspective and another time of the day
In this image I wanted to capture the coldness of these misterious streets
