Derelict - Key Art

Part of my final project at Vancouver Film School. Derelict follows an exploration ship, the Achimi, and its crew, as they find the remnants of an alien civilization, and awaken the creature that destroyed them.

Texture overlays applied to the ship.

First pass of adding the alien tentacles.

Amped up the glow on the tentacles and changed the lighting over the ship.
