It wasn’t until university that Christian discovered his passion for sci-fi and mechanical art. “Since then I’ve really got hooked deeply into mechs, spaceships and bulky tech cars,” he explains.
1 Patrol
“I wanted to show a small vessel exploring an abandoned and desolate environment. I started with very rough strokes, and it evolved to a detailed foreground ship with a diffuse background.”
2 Desert Race
“The picture started out as a bright wasteland desert. My idea was to create something like the pod race from The Phantom Menace.”
3 Robotics Bay
“My idea was to build up a sci-fi robotics lab in a clean environment. The bright entrance was meant to leave an open space for the viewer’s imagination.”
4 Moon Mining Altair
“My inspiration for this was one of Nicolas ‘Sparth’ Bouvier’s awesome pictures. I love sci-fi, and his work always inspires me to keep on drawing.”
5 Lead Free
“What would the world look like if spaceships used oil as their source of fuel? This piece leads you to a not-too-distant future where oil is transported around the globe in huge ships.”
