Description
I guess if you asked me what my work is about right now, I'd have to say I'm still in the learning phase.
Until now I have recreated the 2D works of others. I have posted mainly the reinterpretations of works of Artist that have inspired me most. I have a lot of my designs that I would like to recreate in 3D as I become more confident in my abilities. I hope to start posting more of that stuff.
Now about this piece:
The title states, "Something for Syd. If you can't guess who the inspiring artist is yet, that's because at this point in his career he was still a student at the Art Center. The year was 1955. A very young Syd Mead did a pastel with an eye towards the future.
I spotted this little gem in a collation of his work "Sentinel." I told myself that if I ever got good enough, I would like to recreate it. Will, here it is.
If you have seen the original you will note that there are people in it. I've just purchased a copy of Poser. I just started the program and have a long way to go before I can add people to my scenes. So here is my homage to a young Syd Mead (without people). I love his earlier work and hope to reinterpret some more his stuff as I get better at this.
Enjoy,
Vincent

Truly fantastic I would love the model if you ever are overcome by the need to share this exceptional piece of work. Truly a Favorite well done

extremely nice work, reminds me of the designs in 'Magnus, Robotfighter', i think.
Beautiful design!
a wonderful tribute to Syd Mead
A classic. Beautiful work.
It is a very good and excellent work of art!
Yep, I know this one well. I taught rendering technique as an Industrial Design Grad student and had all my students by the first Sentinel book-- it was so good. Over the years, Syd and I have become good friends and I'm sure he's be very impressed with your modeling prowess and wonderful tribute. Keep up the great work!
Very Syd. Great job, you captured the master's visionary style really well !
