Invisible Cities Thumbnails (Baucis)



Here are some more of my thumbnails for our Project Invisible Cities, Focusing on the city Baucis.
 I imagined this city to be like the Elven Kingdom, Lothlorien in Lord of the rings, giving the city that mystical vibe and that fantasy element to it. 
I however also imagined it as a city of tree house all made in unique and different ways so it created a mismatched appearance.

I like my second page of thumbnails more than my first as I like the lightness of my line and my use of grey to show different parts of the drawing so it isn't one mess of lines.

    A quick tip - try and stop yourself from thinking about buildings as being 'cubes' with pointed roofs - like those little houses in Monopoly. Logically, I suspect that if the architects of Baucis were using trees and organic materials in terms of construction, I don't think they'd be building with right angles etc... wouldn't they be thinking a bit more like this?

Invisible Cities Thumbnails (Armilla)

Here is the start of my thumbnails for our Project Invisible Cities, Focusing on the city Armilla. One of the main thing which I though Armilla looked like was that this city of pipes, baths and taps were on a platform that overflowed over the edge and created a waterfall effect as he said it could be seen as enchanting like a teacup and saucer was overflowing. I feel like my lines could have been clearer so it is easier to see the thumbnails and what everything is.

Invisible Cities Thumbnails (Ersilla)

Here are some more of my thumbnails for our Project Invisible Cities, Focusing on the city Ersilla. I really like these thumbnails because of the shading to some of them as I feel it adds more depth to these quick sketches. My favourite thumbnail is 53, which shows what I imagine the houses of Ersilla to look like. It is my favourite as I like the way I have positioned the house/tent along with my shading.
