Description I recently completed some concept sketches of mining robots for a computer game. The concept on the right is the final concept sketch showing the direction the client wishes to take the design. The design on the left is the same design with exaggerated proportions, something I was messing about with during the vehicle design process.

Huh.. Fancy construction. Looks kinda impractical though. The miner robot can't mine all the way through. Well, unless it could raise and lower the drill... or angle it downwards or something.. or both.

Yes, this is the first post concerning this machine more in the future. The body actually is designed to lift up away from the tracks with the and angle itself downwards or upwards.

Is there a concept option in game development art?

Yup. I'd recommend this category for this picture.
"Game Development Art / Game Concepts & Illustrations / Vehicles"

Hey thanks, I appreciate you looking at my work and your comment.

Are you still looking for artists? I just looked at your page, you have some interesting things going on over there!

Cheers!

I am always looking for artists my friend. Anything in particular interest you?

Quite a few of your roles sound interesting:

Mech concept artist
Tank concept artist
Weapon

Not sure if you still need creatures or characters also at this moment?
I have to say the project sounds great. I'm a full-time artist so I would be looking for a paying role.

If you think you can still use me let me know!

Cheers.
