After Us: Enemy design, Killer Drone

After Us: Enemy design Killer Drone

The concept of Killer Drone is that it is a cold blooded killing machine. It always be used as an expendable supply to clean the battle field. Simply made to kill. Imagine that when a landing craft break into enemy’s mother ship then release hundreds of killer drones to inboard to destroy everything they can see.






I had chosen the 7th thumbnail because I think it could be designed as a folding device. When it folded the shape could be smoother and simpler, Which I think could helpfully to show their technique level.








Then I made a rough model in Maya to figure to help me to explore the details of the concept.

After Us: creatures, part 1

After Us: creatures, part 1

In the world of After Us creatures are an important part to show how much the technology will change our environment and ecosystem. In this future apocalypse gene technology has rebuilt the surface of the ecosystem. Conceit made scientists believe they have the power to make everything under control, but economic benefits lead everything to a mess.

After US: the enemy, an alien species

Enemy: an alien species
When I started to create the enemy there are a few principles I tried to establish before I start.
1. They should neither simply bad nor evil, the reason they become enemy is that they have conflicts of interest with our side.
2. Their culture and technology goes a different direction compare with us.
3. The body structure is different with life on earth.
Then I got some sketches of them.

Left two has flexible limbs, and right two has heavy armor.
I felt like I found the right direction for the species, Them I made more thumbnails of it to try to explore different body structure and functions. For the consideration of rigging and animation I was still trying to keep them as human like structure.

I chose the second one from right to do some some further exploration.

This one has a few unique features.
1. Flexible limbs
2. Two flexible auxilliary limbs, Start from armpit expend to waist, could be used to carry materials or weapons or hold a shield.
3. Apathetic appearance
4. The alien is actually in the chest of the body, the body just its exoskeleton like a battle suit.


The background of this suit is this alien species travel a new system, then they will use the structure of the strongest species in the system to build their battle suit, that's why the suit has human outline.
