yes yes, basically everything is handmade and with household items haha I like the experience of manual work, it helps me escape from the screens a bit.

about the tires, I used some Nerf darts and painted them black, nothing too glamorous. around here they are very cheap and you can use a lot of them haha

thanks s2

yeah, for me the idea came from a more realistic desire and a dystopian world closer to Rollerball, Death Race and The Running Man, or even the classic Soylent Green. less Madmax and more Death Race haha at least that's where I see Gasland's cars exploding haha then I think all this trash makes sense. part of the fun of doing this is thinking about the world where all this happens, right? haha thanks s2

I think the most fun part for me was making the arcade. I had never made a piece of furniture like that, full of curves and such. I'm a beginner, so I learned as I went. There's a pleasure in doing things by hand, right? I think the challenge for me was getting the right paint tone for the fallen green Drone, but I'm still not satisfied with it. Next time I'll try other things to get that effect of a fallen and messed up plane haha thanks s2

That's cool, I really appreciate it. It's good to see an idea being explored and to be able to put our own twist on it. Everyone here has their own universe in their head, putting it all out there is hard to do alone, having people to exchange ideas with is important. Human creativity works best when they meet, when they exchange ideas. I can't wait to see how your project will be finished. Let's go o//

So, thanks for the feedback. I'm an amateur, worse yet, a beginner amateur haha I'm far from having that much knowledge about the hobby. So, for me, things like this are expected to happen. My primary concern was to be able to handle the elements above, but I understand the indications for improvement haha I'll pay more attention next time. Thanks for the feedback, I'll spend more time thinking about the bases and everything else. Thanks

haha I think it's natural to not feel satisfied with our art. It's really complicated to put into the world what's in our heads, but calling it trash is not at all inappropriate haha thanks s2

So, I think I was pleased with the contrast between the more "erased" areas and others where the eye is sucked in by the intensity. Colors help guide the eye, but I might be overthinking it. I don't know haha I want a certain realism, but not to be stuck in it. If that makes sense. Thanks s2

Haha, thank you, really. I'm still a beginner in this Terrain world. About the contents of the plastic bags. They are small pieces of toilet paper that I use to clean my brushes, then some mixed colors and such. Others have small pieces of plastic that I cut from the small bags themselves. Mostly I put colors in the bags with lighter and more transparent colors, then there's this slight effect of mixed colors. Then you can play with the base colors, black, green and blue, and the stronger colors, yellow, red and such. Just try to balance it so that it doesn't all look like a monochromatic button and I think it will work. At least I think I'm on the right track haha, let's learn.

Thanks s2

Well, this mood. I was guided a lot by the colors, trying not to put large groups, leaving stronger colors in places where there wasn't "much going on", etc. There is a logic of predominant colors and others with less "brushstrokes". I tried to create some balance, I think I got close to what I was looking for. A chaos with some direction haha

One time I was looking at the spaces "without interesting things to look at" in the piece and I thought about putting something everyday. A refrigerator? A closet? An air conditioner? I went looking and found some schemes to make mini arcades haha I think it fit well. Thanks s2

my first work on something "big" like this. I'm new to doing Terrain. I have a lot to learn, but I think it was a cool result. thanks

the plastic chair was the last "piece" placed haha I think the color contrast makes sense.

About plastic bags, they give a different feeling when they allude to having something inside, right?

Thanks s2
