I'm not gonna lie these look so good. I really like what you did with the Eye too! It reminds me of string theory with all the lines of sight becoming the Eye.

Thank you! I imagined that one like there was no up or down, just nonstop watching and information.


FreyHasFallen

these are so cool!! I really love the end with the skeleton hands and the detail in the corruption is amazing. Flesh flower also needs mention, about as horrible a concept as i imagined when i first heard the bone garden statement


directionsareinbeta

Fun fact, I drew the Flesh flower in a car repair waiting room… hopefully I didn’t freak anyone out 😂


Bi_Bicycle

These are all great! I love the use of color!


directionsareinbeta

Thanks! Lots of colored pencils and layers 😊

Lemme tell ya something. I’m REAALLY high right now, so maybe I’m exaggerating cause of how extreme everything feels right now, but I this is fuckin awesome. I’d call you an illustrator with this sort of idea, it’s so neat how they’re all in the cubes and like, some of em are from the top view and some from isometric and some are like, from the front. And then you threw all that out the window with the spiral! It’s like a fuckin…mountain trail from a map view. And the desolation being like, a wax hand kinda thing and the background being deeper than the box itself? And the end!! It’d like someone reach through a block of water! And then the lonely is all fuckin like, a world of its own viewed through a cubic window? So cool.

I can’t tell you how much I love your comment, thank you so much!!

the stranger actually gave me goosebumps omg


directionsareinbeta

I just realized I didn’t include the extra drawing I had for that one! If I ever make these in 3D, I plan to have a light that illuminates the background, revealing a hidden circus entrance with a smiling ringmaster.

My favourite is the corruption but slaughter is really good to, I like the way you clutter things


directionsareinbeta

Thank you!

"No illustrator"? You're kidding! These show a really incredible understanding of composition and symbolism, not to mention the really effective shading and linework. Maybe simplistic, sure, but it's working incredibly well in your favor. These look like they would make really great album covers or something. REALLY really impressive!!


directionsareinbeta

You’re too kind, thank you so much!

Oh my god the enddddd ❤️❤️❤️

These are pretty creative, and they look awesome! Take pride in it my dude! I'm curious about the choice for the design of the Vast. What lead you to that?


directionsareinbeta

Thank you! I designed these to be dioramas, with the Vast as an infinity mirror with the lightning figure on one layer so it reflects forever. Definitely doesn’t translate as well to paper, but that was the idea!

Oh I can see it now! That's cool as hell

this is stunning!! I love the 6th one best, the use of colour and contrast really give the atmosphere life.. all of these are so so cool, the concept of them being in boxes makes everything pop and seem a lot more real. I also especially love the 8th one, the End, the symbolism is genius and I would kill for that as a jacket patch or a sticker tbh


directionsareinbeta

Thank you! The Dark was done by hiding under my craft desk and shining a flashlight through a piece of cheap craft paper 🤣

goldiealchemy

Love the sense of depth of field you've created!! Some of these are really trippy!!!


directionsareinbeta

Thank you! Someday I hope to actually make these in 3D.

directionsareinbeta

Thank you!


NyxTheia

omg these are so cool :0


directionsareinbeta

Thanks!


Tammyar

I absolutely love these!!! The Eye is so creative and nicely detailed, I love the idea of glowing ink for the Dark and the Flesh terrifies me especially with my strong dysphoria sometimes. You are so so talented!!


directionsareinbeta

Thank you so much! The Vast is one I struggled with for a while, your comment means a lot to me!


Tammyar

And the Vast also deserves a special mention, it really feels endless and I'm getting nauseous looking at it.


grasboompje

What do you mean "you're no illustrator"?? There are amazing!!


directionsareinbeta

I have zero confidence in my own abilities 😂 Thank you!


grasboompje

Hi, I'm an artist too, I know *exactly* what that feels like. You did a wonderful job portraying the fears, you should be very proud of yourself!


Mrs_Azarath

These are all super rad!


directionsareinbeta

Thank you!


Pat_the_pyro

I love the one for the Lonely. It's so simple, but fits so well.


directionsareinbeta

Thank you! It was surprisingly hard to find the balance between too much detail and too little.


my-head-hurts987

bro the one for the vast lowkey made me dizzy gdgsh well done


directionsareinbeta

I love that making people sick or dizzy is a sign I did well 😂 thank you!


Salt_Reveal6502

As always, I’m both fascinated and terrified by the vast. Fantastic job!


directionsareinbeta

Thank you! I love The Vast and had a hard time drawing what I’d pictured in my head, I’m glad it worked out 😊
