Some studies for the sets I designed for Il Re dell'isola, an animated 3D short film directed by Raimondo Della Calce and settled in Genoa at the beginning of the 20th century.
We tried to reconstruct the appearance of the main pier of the old port, with the city gate called Porta Siberia, still visible today, and the head of the pier with its small lighthouse, demolished in the '20s.

Hey there, I don't really know much about what you were doing here (this blog post seems a little old lol), but I just have to say that that first sketch that you decided to draw for your work is simply amazing!! =O
I was just looking browsing the internet, looking for a picture of a chalk pastel-like green egg (...? lmao don't ask =$) for a website logo I was trying to design, when I came across your image.
I felt inspired when I looked at it; so much so that as soon as I came across it in google images, I had to immediately stop what I was doing, grab a blunt pencil and a scrap piece of paper, find the biggest copy of the image I could, and try to sketch and copy at least a portion of it for myself!
The way that you drew that piece of architecture looks simply awe inspiring! I was thinking about doing some artwork for a video game I was planning a while back, but I decided to scrap because I took too long drawing and making initial sketches, etc...
...but simply looking at that wonderful piece of artwork that you have drawn has inspired me to no end. The SHAPE of your design in particular was what inspired me more than anything (lol it almost feels like a divine sign! lmao xD). The way that the design almost curves/bends inward, and looks 3D, while at the same time looking so distorted blew my mind, and gave me a huge rush. It was exactly the kind of effect that I was looking for, that I wanted to try to create for the structures that I was planning to draw (lol) but gave up because I had little experience in conceptualizing 3D space and shapes, especially in such an exotic way...
I really wish I had more experience with my artwork, design, drawing, and just creating the kind of effects that I want to create (much like your... movie...?) but I never had the chance in my life to simply sit down and draw what I like. All through school and at home there was never enough time to do anything, and things ended miserably for long a while. After a while, I just lost the will to draw anything...
But (at the expense of sounding like someone who needs serious help lol) seeing your artwork has really given me hope and inspired me to just look at the world and start drawing again. Things I like. Words can't express my gratitude =]
Thank you^_-
