Inktober 2018 Day 3: Shitty Concept Art for a different project. Prompt "Ancient Tree" from @semmyjart. A few months back there was a post going around to Name Your YA Fantasy Novel using your birthdate and such. I got "A Home of Topaz and Sun" Haha funny, I don't even write YA and have no interest in doing so. But it took hold and wouldn't let go and what started as a joke became something more. The people in the story live in and on an enormous tree, so large they don't understand it as a tree. It's the world. The surface people live on the outside of the tree and travel through fissures in the bark. Deep fissures are main roads and towns. Shallower cracks may not be occupied. Shown here are lanterns illuminating the path through the shadows. Less color today. I feel like Lego Batman: I only draw in black and very very very dark grey.

Inktober, Day 2. Shitty Concept Art: "Tree Island" for Nature Untouched, @semmyjart. I don't know that it fits into my worldbuilding. I like the trees anchoring the sand and other plants growing in their shadow, gradually expanding, unless the dunes shift. Referenced a photo from my vacation to the coast. I also discovered I can color over the fine black pens and they don't bleed everywhere. I've only ever had crap markers before. I could have read the label *bonks self* Probably play around a little more tomorrow.

Well, here we are, Day One of Shitty Concept Art. Overgrown Ruins @lonelytofu combined with Urban @semmyjart. This is a modern city for my upcoming (I hope) NaNo project. Most buildings are abandoned and in various stages of collapse. The few occupied ones have converted some floors to edible plants, subject to availability and tolerance for the conditions. It might be part of the decór in one of the locations, a zombie-apocalypse-themed gym one of the characters frequents. Not happy with the sky and the photo lost some detail. A lot of detail, maybe. Oh well. Pens are lovely, though.
