Megastructures Book Illustration
"Megastructures: The Visual Encyclopedia" is a book project created by my good friend Neil Blevins. It is being published in 2022 and has been funded by a highly successful Kickstarter campaign. I, along with a handful of other artists, have been fortunate to contribute to this awesome project and here is my illustration!
This is an example of a "ceiling city." If you buy the book, alongside each illustration of an iconic sci-fi megastructure you will get diagrams and descriptions of how these fantastic structures could come to being. Its exactly the sort of book I've loved ever since I was a kid, and I'm excited to both be a part of it, and to get my own copy! Check out the link below:
The Ceiling City (aka SC3K87) Hanging high above the futuristic Santa Carla landscape. Look closely and you'll see there are a few hints at this city's 80's inspired roots...
A closer crop showing one of the flying vehicles. I made good use of the Kitbash 3D drone parts kit to help create these
I modelled most of the tower structures in ZBrush, but I also made use of several Kitbash 3D kits to help add detail
Here is the final print edition of the book!
