Here's another Theos Ke Polemos environment rough, initially riffed out in only blue colored pencil. Once again a locale on the planet Polemos (images of Indus will appear in the future). More a suburb on the outskirts of a city. The stuff on the road is, indeed, drawing by children of Indus and Anemos (Endiel Koh's second FOIL).

I wanted to do more limited palettes like I did for the roughs on environments 05 so here we go, cool blues. There will be more for sure.

Again this is a quick rough so I'll point out the perspective isn't spot on before anyone else does It's more or less just eyeballed free form sketch. Once more posted as a devation to alert folks this stuff actually ends up in scaps.

I usually do these environment roughs really fast (often at the Laundromat crampt little tables). All that matters to me with this stuff is exploring the ideas quickly. Later I can go to some I find the most interesting and do refined, finished, and detailed image art. Ultimately these rough sketches are just fun to do, turn off the critical brain and let loose. When developing ideas more is always better (so long as you do the initial roughs quickly) as you can sort things out after the fact.
