absolutely spectacular. seriously blown away!!
The interior is incredible. I'm running out of adjectives. 
I hope you finish it some day, what a project! when you finish, please post some large images so I can drool! Thanks, Oliver. Really appreciate your kind words. Honestly, I don't know when I will have time to finish it. I have lots of WIP that I need to work on, too. Since I have so many images to post, I have been trying not to post huge images so that my Photobucket account won't explode.

Indeed.

Thanks for you comment, Karl. I have another WIP of a hangar for my spaceships. I will post it soon.
Here some old Sketchup conceptual models for the game Defiance (http://www.defiance.com/en/) that I worked on in late 2009 to mid 2010.
I did not do the Photoshop background painting. It was done by another in-house concept artist.
Have a great week!

Hi Jason,
Just ask me your question(s) and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I am always busy, and it might take days, but you will get a reply.
Take care.

Thx for the precisions!
You're welcome, Pilou. Bonne journee!
That sci-fi/steampunk submarine I did before needed a hangar.
So here it is. A WIP, it has been over 4 months and I still have not had the time to go back to it, but I will finish it someday.

Thanks, Oli. Actually you won't see these models. There were done back in 2009. They got some new designers and a new Art Director on board the next year, and they changed most of everything based on the new directions. I was back to working on Rift at that time.
Here's another personal project in my series of Sci-Fi interiors.
Skp + VrayFS + Photoshop
Have a good day!

Hi there,
More stuff from the game Defiance. They were done a while ago back in 2009.
Have a great day!

As usual Ken, nice work
-
Lovin' your work Ken
Especially the giant, sculptural machines a few posts above.
Some of your more orgainc stuff reminds me of Sparth's paintings - http://sparth.tumblr.com/
Was wondering if he was an influence
Either way, awesome work - I always check out your threads first when I visit this site.A.

Thank you for your compliments, Andy. Yes, I know Sparth's concepts. Very inspiring.
Here are some more conceptual models of alien stuff from Defiance game.
**Have a great day!

It certainly looks very organic, like insects.

Reminds me of something else
I like your clean meshes!

@ Carsten: Thanks for you comment. LOL...Snoopy, good comparison. Thanks for the laugh.
@ Adorno: Thank you for your comment.
Have a wodnerful day!

Love following your work here. It's great you share them with us!
These last ones lead me to ask have you experimented with structures that grow semi-organically or fractal-like like space stations or Paolo Soleri concepts? -

Since you ask the question, I'd thought I post some more of my personal projects/sci-fi environments during the in-between job period. I hope this will satisfy your question about fractal.
This is one of my favorite sci-fi models. Lots of details and challenges.**
The alien spaceship is one of my alien vehicles from my earlier posts.
Just for fun, I exported into Lumion3D to add glass material.
Thanks for visiting. Have a wonderful week!
Best,
