Hi everyone.This is my first time to join competition. I feel very honored.
I will work with the thinking of painting .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Concept Story 2(Used) :

When the Moebius Strip linking the Outer World was discovered,
The Wizard's wish to build the Evil World was finally fulfilled.
The Wizard supported the Evil World with the Moebius Strip.
Monsters, plants, buildings, even orbital bodies from the Outer World, all revealed themselves here.
These Outer World residents shamelessly scavenged everything in man's world.
The Evil World grew larger and stronger, according to its own rules of operations.
In its center, lied the palace with the Moebius Strip, called the The Fallen Church.
Within which originated this world.
Some said that the building embedded the Wizard's eyeballs on its top, to monitor the Evil World.
It spitted out poisonous spores, to protect the World, and to push the World forward.
Some said that the building was alive, but no one knew the real answer.

The Wizard with one eye needs the help of a powerful companion, will you join him?

The last update

Final Concept:


Modeling Sheet:


Sketch Sheet:


Concept Story
1(Unused) :


A fallen church no longer provides people with a sense of faith or peace, but deprives all life within its sphere, even the Earth.
The church is under control of an unnamed force or creature, and slowly secreting white filaments covering all.
The white filaments detect all that is around, like a like an energy field, but also like the molds on bread,exhausting the physical world more fertile than bread.
Withering all, then death.
Within the world of whiteness is weakness, is the departed will seen in present times, evil thus appears.
Fallen churches continue to emerge around the world.
People start to believe, these webbed churches will eventually pave ways for the devils and Satan in Hell.

Sketch

Which concept from the challenge are you using? I would love to see it so I can compare your painting to it.

Hi there, I think you missed the point of Incomitatum's question. If you read the rules (fairly important I would say...) you'll see its mandatory to start from one of the concept images provided, and state which one it is you've chosen.

New concept:

I feel that the focus of image is not on the church in old concept.
So I create a new one and add new ideas.
I still refine the details.


Jeff MD: I quite agree with your precious recommendations.Thx ^_^.
I still continue to explore new ideas.
M_Cederstrom:THX....I retained the big eyes in new concept.

lovely concept and great pencil skills you got there. In my humble opinion, this concept works best for me. although the layout is wide, but overall composition works very well. compared with your recent sketch, putting more emphasis on the church, you could do it as well in this composition. just crop it or increase church size. this old sketch has more dynamic perspective for me.

still both lovely work.

M_Cederstrom,Jeff MD:Thank you for your valuable advices ^_^.
In fact, I personally prefer the idea of a new.
I had confused. Ha ha.......
I see that i paint the two concepts together well.
Recently, I was too busy yet to complete the picture of the new composition.
I need free time.

Hi Nice work. But i'm curious which concept art did you choose from the ones that were provided for this challenge? I thought that it was in the challenge rules that you have to choose a concept from the ones that were given.
