This is work I did last term on a small forest environment and a robot. Very rough, but not bad for my first I think. Also the most revised model on the bottom with some type of jet engine-leg design-really want to animate.
These are my 'collages' done in photoshop. I use collages in rough terms because the photographs I used were mostly taken at night while moving the camera just enough to expose the pictures to a movement of light creating a different shape each time. I'll call it night-painting for lack of a better name. Something cool though.
