2D Post Apocalyptic Background Research

I have created a mood board for my 2D Post-Apocalyptic scene, I thought that instead of getting second hand images from games and movies I looked into actual cities ruined by nuclear bombs, warfare and other disasters. My main influences being the London Blitz and Chernobyl, they were left with a lot of buildings destroyed but still kept a lot of detail of what was happening at the time of the incident.  

2D Laboratory Research Images

I have decided to design a laboratory scene in 2D for my Showreel, I was influenced by the background scenes of Dexter's Laboratory and also Science Fiction movies for their overall feel and cluttered design. I will develop different designs to see if I will create a background for a pan shot or a room. Looking at the backgrounds with characters in I might pose a character to show the viewer how the overall scene would look as an animated piece.

Third Year Background Designs

These are all background scenes, that I created for a Third Year students Animation work. All of these scenes were developed in Photoshop CS6. I worked off of the third year student Miho Yamamoto's original concepts,but all detailing and final layouts were of my own designs. I may add the finished designs into my second year showreel, or just keep the line art as it is and add it to my showreel.
