The Making of The Flying Saucer

[Simon3D]

Concept
My 2D digital illustration ‘The Flying Saucer’ was made for the contest “Flying Machines” organized by the CaféSalé forum, a French CG board. I chose a UFO to represent a flying saucer shape in a world based on the angle, looking up at my kitchen window. I found the challenge to be quite hilarious and I had a lot of fun doing the work, because behind it all, there was a view of my kitchen, unseen (until now) by anyone else. Here is how I put the vehicle and surroundings together, broken down into steps, each defining the composition and colors of this image.
